ROME: The Iranian people must not be made to pay for the actions of their government, Italy said on Tuesday, after US President Donald Trump threatened that “a whole civilization will die tonight.”
A statement from Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni’s office condemned Iran’s attacks on its neighbors but said the actions of a “regime” must be clearly separated from the fate of ordinary people.
“The Iranian civilian population can not and must not be made to pay the price for the guilt of its government,” the statement said.
