The author explains that despite warnings from Rome\u2019s allies, Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte\u2019s government tried to have a slice in the Chinese market. However, when Mario Draghi became the new prime minister of Italy, he turned his back to\u00a0 European and American allies due to political pressure from China.\u00a0 Even the assemblies have uttered their concerns on human rights violations in Xinjiang and violations of freedom in Hong Kong. Italy is now returning to its \u201chistorical anchors\u201d as Draghi emphasized that an alternative to the Belt and Road Initiative needs to be created by the G-7 countries.\u00a0 With the Draghi government, flirtations with China seem to be broken up, but according to the author Italy should keep the opportunity to show itself as reliable and willing to shape China policy.<\/span><\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p><b>By: Berat Karadeniz, CIGA Research
