    Disclaimer: This may or may not be exactly what he said, but there are a couple sources saying that Mao commented on the likely nuclear destruction of Italy. Another translates it as "Italy doesn't matter." The main, non-Italian portion of the quote is well documented.

      I saw a quote talking about nuclear war where Mao said something more general about Europe to the effect of "why should Europe survive?"
