"Italy will work on the reconstruction," said Italian Foreign Minister Antonio Tajani. He also said that the best Italian architects would be involved in the restoration of the cathedral.

He added that Italy wanted to support Ukraine and protect international law.

"Justice means freedom and independence of Ukraine," the Italian Foreign Minister stressed.
