General Miglietta meets the General Consul of Slovenia

In Solbiate Olona a significant meeting with the consular representation of Slovenia, a nation of the Alliance since 2004 and a contributing member of NATO Rapid Deployable Corps in Italy.

Solbiate Olona, October 19, 2020. The meeting between Lieutenant General Guglielmo Luigi Miglietta and Mr. Vojko Volk, General Consul of the Republic of Slovenia in Trieste occurred today at the operational headquarters of NATO Rapid Deployable Corps in Italy.

The event was an auspicious occasion to discuss the current delicate geo-strategic situation, taking into account NATO's ability and determination to provide a collective response to external threats along the Alliance's eastern border.

The meeting proved to be a valuable opportunity to strengthen ties with a nation that has always supported the activities conducted by the NATO Command in Milan, both in the recent past and during the COVID-19 emergency. Moreover, during this challenging period, the synergic effort of the national contingents that make up the Rapid Deployable Corps was vital, confirming the fundamental importance of the multinational aspect and highlighting the cohesion that has always characterized the spirit of the NRDC-ITA community.

Maintaining and improving stable relations with international institutions is an important task for NRDC-ITA, as it helps to confirm its role in the panorama of defence and collective security. This event further highlights the role of NATO Command in Milan as an organization that is ready and able to support the policies of the Alliance, with the objectives of facing crises and promoting international stability.
