“It is quite normal” that all the newspapers have opened on the request for the resignation of Sergio Mattarella by the Northern League senator Claudio Borghi and «clearly it becomes a political controversy then we are in the election campaign. I was very happy with that Salvini clarified why it was important to do so, particularly on June 2nd, in my opinion a day in which controversies must be avoided as much as possible.” Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni said this, guest on Quarta Repubblica, broadcast this evening on Rete4.
European elections, the attack on Colle and abstentionism: Meloni’s issues for the last rush of the electoral campaign
Mattarella, the words of the prime minister
«With President Mattarella I continually see, I must say, an attempt to drag him into the political arena, to talk about alleged differences with the government and I believe that at the heart of this strategy there is» the premiership. But we did not go for “French-style semi-presidentialism” to meet the opposition who asked not to “touch the powers of the President of the Republic: I decided to change the reform and they did not have time to update the strategy, so they continue to hide, to take refuge behind the defense of the Head of State, whose powers have not been touched and in doing this, in my opinion, they also lack respect for the President of the Republic who should not be drawn into these political quarrels due to the weakness of the parties” , added Meloni.
The Giorgetti case
«I smiled» compared to the rumors about the exit of the Minister of Economy Giancarlo Giorgetti to become EU commissioner. “He denied it, he denies it if he doesn’t think so, otherwise he wouldn’t have denied it,” says Meloni. “It seems to me that there are newspapers that instead of telling reality they make a book of wishes,” he added.
De Luca and the phrase «I’m the str…»
Meloni then made a reference to the greeting to Caivano with the president of the Campania region, Vincenzo De Luca. «They told me that De Luca was there, while I was in the car I then thought about what to say to him», he said regarding his sentence «Hello, I’m the str…».
Rai and censorship
«I don’t watch TV much, to find the data on TeleMeloni I had to study it because there was all the controversy about TeleMeloni. So I went and got the data from the Pavia Institute. It’s not a question of being more or less represented, because I don’t ask Rai to represent me. I simply said and continue to believe that Rai must be plural, it must give space to everyone. In the past we did not have a Rai that gave space to everyone. Because I’ve been there on the other side.” Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni said this, guest on Quarta Repubblica, broadcast this evening on Rete4. «I was there when Fratelli d’Italia had 6+ votes and was represented on Tg1 with a percentage that was around 2%, gathered between the midnight edition and the 6 am edition – added the leader of FdI -. I’ve been in that world, I’m not fooled, is that clear? I saw censorship, I saw what censorship was, I saw what it was to be part of those who were not in the narrow circle of those in charge. So I will never replace that system of power with a diametrically opposed system of power that does the same thing. I want freedom, because in my opinion that is what public service is about.”
Toti and the Liguria case
“I have already said that in my opinion the person who can point to this issue is Giovanni Toti, simply because Giovanni is the only one who really knows the truth. He knows what is right to do and I think he should do what he considers right for the citizens of the Region Liguria”. Thus the Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, guest of Quarta Repubblica, broadcast tonight on Retequattro, regarding the opportunity for the governor of Liguria to resign. This, he explained, “means evaluating the ability to govern and also evaluating in conscience whether, as he says, he is innocent. Having a man who was chosen by the citizens resign because he is accused of something that is false is a lack of respect towards the citizens, while if the thing were not false it would be a lack of respect towards the citizens not to resign. I have not read the 9 thousand pages, I have not been able to speak to Giovanni, I know that he cares deeply about his region, he has been. recognized by the citizens of Liguria who confirmed him by a large majority. I know that he is used to doing what is best for his region and I expect this determination from him.”
