I plan to attend a meeting of EU Defence Ministers in Brussels later this month. This will provide the opportunity to meet as many of my colleagues as possible, including my Italian counterpart. While I have no plans to formally meet with the Italian Minister for Defence, I would welcome an opportunity for a bi-lateral with him or any of my EU counterparts on the margins of the EU Defence Ministers' meeting.
