Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni said it was "very important" to avoid dividing the West over Ukraine. 

Meloni's words came in London, where European leaders gathered, at the invitation of British Prime Minister, Keir Starmer, to discuss the war in Ukraine, AFP reports.  

"It is very, very important that we avoid the risk of the West splitting apart and I think on this issue the UK and Italy can play an important role in building bridges," Meloni said during his meeting with his British counterpart in Downing Street. | BGNES
