意大利驻土耳其大师朱塞佩·曼佐在接受阿纳多卢通讯社独家专访时表示，意大利视土耳其为欧洲安全的关键伙伴，并寻求在地区稳定、北约及国际倡议方面加强合作。
Italy considers Türkiye a crucial partner in European security and seeks closer cooperation on regional stability, NATO and international initiatives, Italian Ambassador to Türkiye Giuseppe Manzo told Anadolu in an exclusive interview.
曼佐说：“我们确实认为土耳其在我们的安全中扮演着关键角色。”他强调了欧洲安全在更广泛的北约框架内的重要性。
"We really believe that Türkiye has a crucial role in our security," Manzo said, emphasizing the importance of European security within the broader NATO framework. "I think it's fair to say that we both want more Europe in NATO," he added.
他补充道：“我认为可以说，我们双方都希望北约中有更多的欧洲因素。”
The ambassador said strengthening political cooperation on regional security was among his priorities, highlighting the NATO summit, the 4+4 meeting and COP31 as opportunities for closer coordination.
大使表示，加强地区安全方面的政治合作是他的优先事项之一，并指出北约峰会、“4+4会议”以及第31届联合国气候变化大会（COP31）为更紧密的协调提供了契机。他还指出了双方对北约东翼和南翼面临威胁的共同关切。他说：“我们需要适应新挑战，为新问题和新威胁寻找新答案。”
He also pointed to shared concerns about threats facing NATO's eastern and southern flanks. "We need to adapt to new challenges and find new answers to new questions and new threats," he said. "I think Italy and Türkiye are very well equipped to do this."
“我认为意大利和土耳其非常有能力做到这一点。”曼佐表示，两国的地理位置——意大利位于地中海，土耳其位于欧亚十字路口——为开发应对地区和国际挑战的新方法提供了机遇。
Manzo said the countries' geographical positions -- Italy in the Mediterranean and Türkiye at the crossroads of Europe and Asia -- offered opportunities to develop new approaches to regional and international challenges. "By nature, we are well positioned to develop new answers and new tools to address both old problems and new challenges," he said.
他说：“凭借天然优势，我们处于有利位置，能够开发新答案和新工具，以应对老问题和新挑战。”
Trade, cultural ties and international cooperation The ambassador highlighted the countries' longstanding relationship as they mark 170 years of diplomatic ties.

He described Italy as Türkiye's leading trading partner in the Mediterranean and its second-largest in Europe.

On international governance, Manzo voiced support for reforming the UN Security Council to make it "more transparent and democratic."
在国际治理方面，曼佐表示支持改革联合国安理会，使其“更加透明和民主”。他回忆说，自己曾收到土耳其总统雷杰普·塔伊普·埃尔多安赠送的一本书，书中包含“世界大于五”这句话，他形容这一信息与讨论改革国际机构相关。
He recalled receiving a book from Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan containing the phrase "The world is bigger than five," describing the message as relevant to discussions on reforming international institutions. The ambassador also highlighted cooperation in space exploration, including joint satellite projects and Türkiye's first astronaut traveling to space alongside Italian astronauts.
这位大使还强调了在太空探索领域的合作，包括联合卫星项目以及土耳其首位宇航员与意大利宇航员一同进入太空。“我有宾至如归的感觉”在回顾他在安卡拉度过的前几个月时，曼佐赞扬了土耳其的好客，并表示自己立刻感受到了欢迎。他说：“我有宾至如归的感觉。”
'I felt at home' Reflecting on his first months in Ankara, Manzo praised Turkish hospitality and said he had immediately felt welcomed. "I felt at home," he said.
