“The Italians have entrusted us with an important responsibility. Now it will be our task not to disappoint them and do our best to restore dignity and pride to the nation ”. Giorgia Meloni affirms this in the aftermath of the vote on the policies that gave her the country. "From the Italians - added the FDI leader - comes a clear indication for a center-right government led by the Brothers of Italy, it is the time of responsibility, Italy has chosen us and we will not betray it ".

READ - At home Pd instead it is time to analyze the defeat ( IL PUNTO sui dem). "Italy has chosen the right, today is a sad day for Italy and for Europe", the words in the press conference in the Nazarene by the secretary Enrico Letta announcing an acceleration of the times of the congress which was scheduled for March , in which he will not be re-nominated .

" The only way to beat the right was the wide field but it was not possible and it was not our fault," he said. This legislature "will be the furthest to the right, it is a deep regret but also an incentive to continue fighting".

Then the announcement of the step backwards : in the coming days "we will bring together the party organs to accelerate the path that will lead to a congress". He will not resign now, to ensure continuity to the party, but he will not be re-nominated at the congress: "I will ensure in a spirit of service the leadership of the Democratic Party in the coming weeks in view of the congress, to which I will not reappear as a candidate" because "I believe that a new generation has the task of relaunching the Democratic Party in the interest of Italy and Europe ".

SALVINI - Matteo Salvini speaks   from via Bellerio in Milan   of the result of the center-right and of the League which has lost double figures ( IL PUNTO sulla Lega). "The result clearly disappoints, I didn't work for 9% - says the leader of the Carroccio -. But Italy has five years of stability ahead".

On Giorgia Meloni's success: "She was good at making a strong opposition ." Having ruled for almost two years "was not easy", but considering how the situation was "I would do it again".

"I went to bed quite inc ... ato" but now "I woke up spring loaded" because "I expect that for at least five years you go straight without changes with a clear majority of the center".

The federal council of the League has been convened for tomorrow, on the horizon there is no resignation of the secretary ("I do not resign"), who also admits: "A phase of reorganization of the movement, focusing on mayors and administrators, is fundamental" .

Finally , the jab at Enrico Letta : "I say to him that it is better to have 9% and 100 MPs in the majority than 18% and 100 MPs in opposition".

COUNT - The M5s leader gloats and defines the result "a great success that gives us great consensus to face this legislature and conduct our battles in an uncompromising way". Starting with the defense of citizenship income and the progressivity of the tax authorities , on which “we will not make discounts”.

The attack on Letta : “Today he pointed the finger at me in an explicit and univocal way. When there is a defeat, as in the case of the Democratic Party, it is good for a leader not to look for scapegoats to put the responsibility on ”.

On a possible alliance, not today but maybe in the future… “I have already said that there will be no dialogue with this leadership group of the Democratic Party : but the question is not personal. The points are political. It is not just a question of the leadership team but of the agenda. We need to see which Pd will come out of the congress ”.

CALENDA - "The country has chosen the path of populism", said the leader of Action Carlo Calenda , according to which the fact that this election went "like a televoting to Big Brother", with an "ongoing energy crisis", is a "mortal risk." "We have to reflect on the fact that according to the polls we appreciate Draghi and Mattarella, but then 2/3 of the country vote the opposite of that model . We believe that this dynamic that leads people to vote like televoting Big Brother, for those who shout the loudest, has led to the decline of Italy and at a time when there is an energy and economic crisis, inflation, this is a mortal risk ".

BERLUSCONI - Satisfied Cav. for the result obtained: “Forza Italia is confirmed as decisive for the success of the center-right and decisive for the formation of the next government. Once again, I have put my commitment at the service of Italy, of the country I love. Thank you for your trust ”.

“Forza Italia - relaunches Antonio Tajani - will be the pro-European and liberal soul, the guarantee on the international level of the next executive ”.

DI MAIO - “There are no ifs, buts or excuses to make. We lost. The Italians did not consider our political project mature and valid enough . And on this our community will have to open a reflection ”, writes on Facebook the foreign minister and leader of Civic Commitment not re-elected. “We decided to get involved, to propose a new political project to the Italians, to be made known in a very short time. The result was not what we expected. Civic Engagement will not be in Parliament. Likewise, I won't be there either. Tonight I congratulated Sergio Costa ”.
