Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni's decision to exit the Belt and Road Initiative has significantly impacted Italy-China relations, likened to an \"earthquake\" causing a major reset. In an interview with CGTN's Guan Xin, former Italian Ministry of Economic Development State Undersecretary Michele Geraci emphasized the importance of rebuilding ties carefully, comparing the process to \"building a small house.\" Geraci stressed that successful relationships with China require consistency and continuity rather than erratic changes and instability. This perspective highlights the need for strategic and steady engagement between Italy and China moving forward.
