(ANSAmed) - Rome, May 15 - Italy's foreign minister Emma Bonino has called for a 'United States of Europe'.
"I am a confirmed federalist and so is this government," Bonino said on Wednesday.
"Our objective remains the United States of Europe" and "a system that guarantees major results and also savings in the area of defence, research, major infrastructure and obviously foreign policy".
Bonino was speaking to the House and Senate foreign affairs committee.
"I believe that the Italian presidency of the EU in the second half of 2014 will be an important opportunity to push for this," she said.
