Rome, 19 Nov. (LaPresse) – "The Trentini case is very close to our hearts and we are working tirelessly for his release. The situation varies from country to country: in Iran, for example, Cecilia Sala was released quickly, as was Alessia Piperno, while French hostages were released after years. With Venezuela, the situation is more complex. But we are not giving up. We are in constant contact, including through indirect channels.‘ This was stated by Foreign Minister Antonio Tajani in an interview with Messaggero Veneto. ’We recall that two other Italians were recently released by the Venezuelan government. For Trentini, the situation is different, perhaps linked to their internal issues. But above all, the international situation sees a very tough confrontation between Caracas and Washington," added the head of the Farnesina. ‘Of course, we do not say everything we do in public: hostage diplomacy requires discretion. But the Trentini family must know that we are working and will continue to work: we have not forgotten him,’ Tajani concluded.
