However, Conte rejects\u00a0being labeled a pro-Russian. &#8220;We have nothing to do with the positions of the most radical right-wing parties. We are not pro-Putin, we have condemned him for the aggression against Ukraine from the very beginning. We have no ideological contamination that could mislead us.&#8221;While he backed the EU sanctions to Russia, he believes that they did not reach the target. \u201cWe were told that the Russian economy would collapse. We were even told that they had run out of bullets, out of weapons, and that they were struggling on a military level. All lies. We must acknowledge that the Russian economy had a 4.1% GDP growth in 2024.&#8221;Asked about the security guarantees to provide to Ukraine, Giuseppe Conte does not want to put forward any concrete answers, claiming that it would be premature to discuss this now.\u00a0He is strongly against the idea, floated\u00a0by current Italian prime minister Giorgia Meloni, of extending to Ukraine NATO\u2019s Article 5 &#8211; its collective defence clause &#8211; without the country being granted actual membership of the alliance.\u201cThis solution is unacceptable: it would mean that from a proxy war that we have been fighting up to now, tomorrow we would switch to a direct war in favor of Ukraine, instead of working on a peace negotiation.
