Italy-China negotiations: diplomatic protest from Trieste

On March 11th, 2019, the International Provisional Representative of the Free Territory of Trieste – I.P.R. F.T.T. has sent an official note to the Italian Government protesting the illegitimate inclusion of the international Free Port and the customs port of Trieste in the current political-economic negotiations between Italian Republic and the People’s Republic of China.

If the Italian Government does not exclude Trieste from the negotiations, the I.P.R. F.T.T. is going to prevent the enforcement of any such agreement by summoning the administering Italian Government before Court.

In case it proves necessary, the I.P.R. F.T.T. is also requesting the activation of the international procedures for the settlement of disputes concerning the interpretation or execution of the 1947 Treaty of Peace with Italy.
