The European nation called in the Russian diplomat on the weekday to object to what it said were crude, disturbing and unacceptable remarks by Moscow's foreign ministry spokeswoman who connected the fatal incident of a structure in Italy to Italy's military support for the conflict zone. The Italian foreign minister stated that Italy will not alter its international position or its principles in response to careless statements. The Russian embassy in Rome later expressed sympathy for the demise of a construction employee in the accident but took the opportunity to protest that the angry response to the remarks was anti-Russian.
