While Italy's government is advancing a budget amendment on its gold reserves, they are held and managed by the Bank of Italy, not the ECB, with no gold stored at the ECB. The amendment declares state ownership without moving or reclaiming any gold. https://www.bancaditalia.it/compiti/riserve-portafoglio-rischi/index.html?com.dotmarketing.htmlpage.language=1 https://vblgoldfix.substack.com/p/italy-to-formally-take-possession https://www.euronews.com/business/2025/11/26/who-does-italys-gold-belong-to-and-why-are-we-talking-about-it-now

Original Tweet

Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1995173541143363963

Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
