BARI – «The Puglia Region with its offices is evaluating every possibility very carefully, including directly challenging the Calderoli law before the Constitutional Court which, as is known, is only possible for the Regions for violations of the regional sphere of competence . At this moment, unity is strength and therefore we will share all the initiatives that the other regions propose and which go in the same direction”. The governor of Puglia said it Michele Emilianoregarding the appeal to the Consulta that the Campania governor De Luca is preparing and the possibility that Puglia can support him.
«Differentiated autonomy undermines the principle of unity and indivisibility of the Republic, as enshrined in Article 5 of our Constitution, and risks creating regional fiefdoms in which to attract public power and preserve local wealth, to the detriment of national equalization. We had already had the first signs with the macroscopic reduction of the infrastructure equalization fund. Differentiated autonomy will chronicle the gap between the regions because it undermines the regional model that the Constituent Assembly had outlined as solidarity and cooperative. So the first thing to do is to inform Italian citizens about what is happening.” The president of the Puglia Region, Michele Emiliano, said this.
«The differentiated autonomy as conceived by the Calderoli law does not only damage the South, the common front against this reform must not be just the South but national». Thus the president of the Puglia Region, Michele Emiliano, responds to the possibility of a common front being born with the governors of the South against autonomy.
