“And speaking of the G7 agenda, – concluded the lawyer. Marraffa- it seems clear to us that the attention of the great people of the Earth for Taranto and Calliope is connected to the results of the just transition that we are all making together, because it is based on aspects of the fight against climate change and social inequalities, rather than on applications relating to artificial intelligence, sustainable mobility and the concept of one health. All objectives which, in a desirable scenario of strengthening peace between peoples and improving international relations, are of interest to governments and markets for the season ahead of us.”
