"Salvini proposes that everyone go and beg Mattarella to make another term as President of the Republic. I don't want to believe it." Already this morning, as soon as Salvini opened at Mattarella bis, Giorgia Meloni made herself heard.

“I would be amazed if Mattarella accepted re-election after having firmly and repeatedly rejected this hypothesis. Also because we all know that the second presidential term cannot become a practice, forcing the balance provided for by our Constitution ", he added.

When the encore came to fruition with the Head of State "making himself available", he brought together the great electors of the party and then announced: "We will not vote for it, Brothers of Italy vote for Carlo Nordio", one of the three names of the first rose of the center-right.

Launching a harsh attack on the allies: "The parliamentary center-right no longer exists, I think it must have representation. We must re-establish the center-right from the beginning out of respect for the people who want to change, we must start over and Fdi assumes this responsibility", his words.

The leader of the Brothers of Italy leaked all the disappointment for Salvini's behavior, who eventually succumbed to the logic of the government majority, avoiding continuing to force his hand on center-right candidates: "I expected different attitudes from many people , I expected more courage and conviction. What drives me crazy is the idea of giving up before starting. We have done everything we could do, others did not believe us. "

Meloni also recalled that "in the last meeting of the center-right the only thing we all agreed on was the no to Mattarella's reconfirmation. Instead, today I discover that the positions have changed. The Italians will judge, I have no one to judge. . I can be disappointed but I don't judge ".

SALVINI - Salvini's reply was not long in coming. "Meloni said no to Draghi today he says no to Mattarella: a legitimate choice. But while we were compact, others went in no particular order: it means that a reflection on the alliance must be made. I prefer teamwork and not the free hitter ”.

But the Northern League leader is also angry with the moderates: “If someone feels left-wing we should reflect. We think that there is someone from Forza Italia who did not vote for Casellati ".
