"One of the most painful decisions since I started doing politics." So Carlo Calenda, today at "Half an hour more" led by Lucia Annunziata, announced the breaking of the alliance with Enrico Letta's Pd.
In recent days, he said, "there has been a crescendo that has shown me what the electoral campaign will be like: it will not be done against the right, but by demolishing the liberal area of the coalition". For the leader of Action, "when we made this agreement we had established that a piece of the coalition could not demolish the Draghi agenda", but from the next moment "they bombed the Draghi agenda", with "a coherence of language that has jumped immediately".
But, in particular, "there is a series of personalities that Italians can no longer see".
"Maybe I was naive - he added -. I thought the Democratic Party was ready to show that the left represented them, without Fratoianni and Bonelli , that Letta had understood that the consistency of what is proposed is fundamental", while "it prevailed the desire to create a National Liberation Committee, but this committee frees nothing ”.
"It seems to me from everything he said - replied Enrico Letta on Twitter - that the only possible ally for Calenda is Calenda. We go ahead for the interest of Italy".
A long speech on TV, which left a window to recover: the hypothesis of a Pd-Action alliance by renouncing the boarding schools, and with only 10 percent.
