Italy's finance minister says there is no backlash from the US after signing deal with China
Italy hasn't suffered backlash from U.S. authorities after having agreed to be part of China's Belt and Road initiative, the country's finance minister told CNBC on Friday.
However, Giovanni Tria, an economist in charge of Italy's finances, said:"We have not any backlash, we have a strategic partnership, an alliance with the United States and the other countries allied in NATO and this doesn't change." The White House has previously said Italy's involvement in China's grand plan could hurt its international reputation, according to the Financial Times.
