Italy said on Thursday that firms that have helped Russia fund its war on Ukraine by doing business with the country should be excluded from profiting from Ukraine's reconstruction, APA reports citing Reuters.
Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni said earlier that participants at a Rome conference on the economic recovery of Ukraine had pledged more than 10 billion euros ($11.7 billion) to help the war-torn country.
"We want to work with Ukraine to ensure that entities which have contributed to financing the Russian war machine do not benefit from the reconstruction," Meloni said during a speech at the conference.
