(Adnkronos) – “It has been clear for months that he would do so. He will certainly be elected and the European institutions will be able to enjoy his contribution of ideas and values. I am sure that his presence will help the League electorally. A win-win choice, as he says. For him, for the League and for the army”. With these words, Defense Minister Guido Crosetto comments with Affaritaliani.it on the independent candidacy of General Roberto Vannacci on the League lists, throughout Italy, in the European elections of next 8-9 June. “It’s his opinion, if he thinks it’s so good for him. I wouldn’t want to disappoint him though. Did he seem sarcastic? I’ll leave the sarcasm to the minister. He’s very cryptic so I don’t know”, he replies to Un Giorno da Pecora, on Rai Radio1 , the candidate general interviewed by Giorgio Lauro and Geppi Cucciari. His candidacy also aroused criticism from his party colleagues. “These are their problems, I go my own way, they discuss among themselves within the party, I don’t have a “Lega” card at the moment, I’m an independent candidate”. Hundreds, however, made it clear that he would never vote for her. “Very good. I wish him good luck and best wishes.” Fedriga said to our microphones a little while ago that he will choose the three candidates from his territory. “And I – concluded Vannacci – wish them all the best”. —[email protected] (Web Info)
