It's no secret, Salvini has always liked the Viminale . As Interior Minister of the Conte I Government he had brought the League to its historic peak. And now that he has been acquitted in the Open Arms case trial he is back on the attack.

"I was the Minister of the Interior and I think discreetly. Now the acquittal takes away the excuses especially from the left that said 'no Salvini cannot deal with immigration, security, interiors' because I was on trial. I have many things to carry forward at the ministry where I am but certainly dealing with the security of Italians is something beautiful and important. Matteo Piantedosi has all my trust, then we will reason with both Giorgia and him ".

These are the statements released by the leader of the League leaving the Senate after the vote on the maneuver. "When someone is the Minister of the Interior and deals with the security of Italians for once, it stays with them for life. I have brought positive results that I remember with extreme joy and extreme pride. Have I spoken about it with Giorgia Meloni? No. "

According to some behind-the-scenes reports, the Prime Minister herself is against Salvini's return to the Viminale , reconstructions that the Lega member brands as "not very reliable, like the news on the AC Milan transfer market".

But a sort of halt to Salvini's ambitions comes from an important exponent of Fratelli d'Italia, the undersecretary to the presidency of the Council Giovanbattista Fazzolari : «The reshuffle is not on the agenda, it has never been discussed and there is no need. Salvini at the Viminale? There is no preclusion on anything, but a reshuffle is done when the government's activity would benefit from it and to date it does not seem to me to be necessary. Piantedosi is an excellent minister ».
