WASHINGTON - Today, Secretary of the Treasury Janet L. Yellen met with Italyʼs Minister of
Economy and Finance Giancarlo Giorgetti on the sidelines of the Spring Meetings of the
International Monetary Fund and World Bank. During their meeting, Secretary Yellen and
Minister Giorgetti exchanged views on shared G7 priorities amid Italy's presidency. Secretary
Yellen also discussed ways to unlock the value of immobilized Russian sovereign assets to
support Ukraineʼs continued resistance and long-term reconstruction, and ways to constrain
Russiaʼs access to the goods it needs to build weapons, including the role China plays in
supplying Russiaʼs military industrial complex. Secretary Yellen and Minister Giorgetti also
exchanged views on Chinese industrial practices that cause overcapacity and the potential
impact on manufacturers in the United States, Italy, and globally.
