Jantelaun will not be drawn by Mr. about whether this might involve air strikes on targets Isis or ground forces. "I think it is premature to speculate on scenarios," he said. "If there is a request, Italy is ready to have a role in it - on the condition that there is a legal framework for the resolution of the Security Council and asked the Libyan government. We certainly will not do this alone."
Italy's central role in diplomacy in Libya comes as it seeks to counter the perception that has remained on the sidelines in the fight against Isis in Syria, refused to join France, Russia and the United States and now in the United Kingdom in air strikes on militant jihadists there.

"If other forms of commitment will be useful and necessary in the next few months, we will look at it and discuss it with our allies."
