Italy plans to classify a €13.5 billion bridge project to Sicily as military spending to meet NATO spending targets. The Meloni government claims the bridge is of strategic importance, facilitating military mobility. The opposition disputes this approach, calling it a "bluff" and emphasizing the need for improvements in local infrastructure. Although the government wants to go ahead with the project, there are doubts about NATO's acceptance of this classification and the impact on public opinion.
