“I have said and repeated it dozens of times, but if there was any need I will repeat it: there is no room, in Fratelli d’Italia, for racist or anti-Semitic positions, just as there is no room for those nostalgic for the totalitarianism of the 1900s, or for any manifestation of stupid folklore. The right-wing parties from which many of us come from have already come to terms with the past and with the twenty years of fascism several decades ago and this is even more true for a young political movement like ours, which since its foundation has also made the choice to open up to political cultures compatible with ours, welcoming people who also come from political paths different from that of the historic right”. Giorgia Meloni, president of Fdi, wrote this in a letter addressed to the party leaders after the Fanpage investigation into Gioventù nazionale.
“Our task – writes Meloni – is too great to be allowed to be ruined by those who have not understood its scope. I do not have and we do not have time to waste with those who are not able to understand what Fratelli d’Italia is and what the great historical challenges of our era are. I do not have and we do not have time to waste with those who want to make us go backwards, or with those who turn us into a caricature. I do not have and we do not have time to waste with those who, unknowingly or not, become a tool in the hands of the adversary. Those who are not able to understand this, who have not understood this path, who are not in a position to keep up, cannot be part of Fratelli d’Italia”.
