After years of diplomatic tensions, France and Italy are due to seal a landmark pact of friendship and cooperation on Thursday.
French President Emmanuel Macron will make the trip to Rome to sign the “French-Italian Enhanced Cooperation Treaty” with Italian Prime Minister Mario Draghi.
According to the Elysée, this treaty “will promote the convergence of French and Italian positions, as well as the coordination of the two countries in matters of European and foreign policy, security and defence, migration policy, economy, education, research, culture and cross-border cooperation.”
