Italy to join US-led Pax Silica AI initiative despite Trump spat

ROME Italy will join the U.S. led Pax Silica initiative on artificial intelligence supply chains despite a spat between Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni and President Donald Trump a foreign ministry official said. Ambassador Armando Varricchio told Friday's Corriere della Sera daily that Italian Foreign Minister Antonio Tajani and U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio would sign a memorandum of understanding at the first available opportunity. Italy was due to join Pax Silica on Monday in Miami but Tajani called off the trip after Meloni and Trump had a public falling out. The U.S. president had complained about Italy's alleged lack of support for the Iran war.
