Renzi says Italy afraid to prove its worth (see related) (ANSA) - Brussels, April 2 - Italian Premier Matteo Renzi on Wednesday said Italy should not be afraid to prove its worth.

Leaving a summit of European Union and African leaders in Brussels, Renzi said Italians often have a distorted "crumpled" view of who they are and fail to recognize their value.

"We are the seventh main United Nations donor," he said.

"We lead a mission in Lebanon and are the main country providing UN peacekeepers".
