A strong link between Italy and the United States. In history but also in diplomatic relations. And so after the congratulations of the Italian institutions to President Joe Biden come those of the American diplomacy to Italy. The installation of the new government led by Prime Minister Mario Draghi did not lack support from the United States. A wish that relations between the two countries can continue.

Biden and Draghi start cooperation
The cooperation between the two countries is the basis of the historical relations between Italy and the USA

Biden's tweet to Draghi

The first to write publicly on social media was US president Joe Biden. "Congratulations, Prime Minister Mario Draghi - wrote the president on Twitter -. I look forward to working closely with you to deepen our strong bilateral relationship, cooperate during your leadership of the G20, and address global challenges from COVID to climate change". And so Biden clearly expressed his eagerness to work "closely" soon. A collaboration for the American president, important, and aimed at deepening "our strong bilateral relationship, cooperating during your leadership of the G20 and addressing the global challenges from COVID to climate change".

Before Biden, a spokesman for the US State Department had commented on the new executive headed by Mario Draghi to ANSA. "- States United have a long and historic relationship with Italy - He said -. We congratulate the new Italian government and look forward to continuing cooperation to increase our results and address the many challenges we face as a global community.".

Relations between Italy and the USA

Italy and the United States are two neighboring countries. Bilateral relations at the basis of diplomacy. If the tweet of good wishes and collaboration written by Biden is the first reaction of the White House to the new Italian government, with which the new American administration now intends to start new contacts, it is undoubtedly a first significant point of collaboration and understanding.. There are the challenges of the G20, of which Italy holds the rotating presidency. But also the close collaboration to get out of this difficult pandemic moment we are experiencing.

A long period of relationships

Relations between the two countries historically began in 1861. Collaboration, cooperation and great friendship have characterized the relations between the two nations. Diplomatic relations and economic and cultural exchanges are the basis of relations between the two countries. And then the Italian community, or of Italian descent, in the US amounts to 18 million inhabitants. A hope, therefore, of collaboration between Biden and Draghi, but also with Mattarella as has been the case for some time, which will be able to continue in the sign of continuity between the two countries.
