A few days ago it seemed that various parts of the government in Italy were having doubts about hosting the September NATO meeting in Naples after all. The Times hinted that it might go ahead but is there any confirmation?
Just bear in mind that NATO has political pretensions as well as purely military. If its goes ahead, this will be the 3rd international meeting its held this year (already in Vilnius and Budapest). Globalization may not include mere economic forces; a global miltary-political regime may be the concomitant, and NATO may be just the guys to apply for the job.
