MM Regina Elana is currently being rebuilt. She has already been in dry dock for some time, but it was thought that she was going to be scrapped. The decision, announced today, shows that our government is indeed responding to calls for increased naval presence in the Med. However is this enough? or do we need more to ensure that Italy's security is not threatened?
Mussolini;"Our government is finally waking up to the inevitable. At present the Med. in going to fall into the hands of the Hellenic navy. Imagine Greece with a navy more powerful than our own. We cannot let this state of affairs to continue. I am glad that our useless government has finally done something to halt increasing Greek presence, however it is not enough."
