Roberto Vannacci "is not from the League" and "I don't agree with his words".
This was said by the Minister of Finance Giancarlo Giorgett i, commenting on the declarations of the general candidate for the European elections by the Northern League secretary Matteo Salvini regarding pupils with disabilities , for whom " classes with separate characteristics" should be set up, which would help the other children , those «with great potential», to «express themselves to the maximum».
Statements that triggered bitter controversy , with the intervention of the CEI ("We're back to the darkest times") and also political reactions, including those within not only the League, but also the centre-right coalition (the president of the deputies of Forza Italia Paolo Barelli spoke of «frescacce» ).
«It's good for him that he doesn't have a handicapped child, otherwise he would understand he had said something foolish» , was the comment of the President of the Senate Ignazio La Russa , during the Fratelli d'Italia convention in Pescara.
For his part, the general dismisses the discontent expressed by some of the League's big names as simple "internal party disputes, which I consider more than legitimate but which don't interest me".
“Let's let the citizens express themselves, that's what counts,” adds the general in an interview with the Affaritaliani website.
As for his words on disabled people, Vannacci tries to explain himself better: «Never said that they should be in separate classes. But dedicated structures would be needed for moments of particular attention paid to their disabilities."
