Recent social media exchanges between Italy Viva and Forza Italia highlight growing political tensions in Italy surrounding the issue of peace in Gaza. Italy Viva, led by former Prime Minister Matteo Renzi, criticized Foreign Minister Antonio Tajani for participating in the Board of Peace, referencing a video of Tajani holding a red 'Make America Great Again' hat. The post drew a sharp comparison between Tajani and the esteemed Italian statesman Alcide De Gasperi, implying a decline in Italy's diplomatic integrity and resolve. This comment sparked a backlash from Forza Italia, who dismissed Renzi's critique as hypocritical, drawing attention to his past associations with figures like Tony Blair and agenda-setting leaders like Bin Salman, who are also linked to the peace initiative.
