After the rift between the Region of Sardinia and the staff of the America's Cup, the controversy over the World Series of the America's Cup sailing does not subside.
To rekindle them this time are some statements by the Minister of Infrastructure Matteo Salvini , against whom the Sardinian senator of the Pd Marco Meloni points the finger.
«I read – reads a note – that Matteo Salvini will propose to the government to support Brindisi's candidacy for the America's Cup World Series scheduled for October , underlining that an event of this kind, which reaches 900 million spectators, “is lacking in Italy for years” and has “a return of image and development for the South and for the whole country”. Since he pretends to forget it, I remind Salvini that Italy had already obtained the event, which should have been held in Cagliari, if it hadn't been canceled by the Sardinian-League junta at the helm, fortunately for a few more months. of the Autonomous Region of Sardinia".
"In other words - adds Meloni - it is the regional council led substantially by the party of which Salvini is secretary that caused Italy, and more precisely Sardinia, to lose the event".
"If they had a minimum of modesty - concludes the senator dem -, before embracing other candidates in the blink of an eye - to whom we must wish every luck in any case - Salvini and the Sardinian-Lega supporters should explain the obscure reasons for the decision they have taken and apologize for the very serious damage caused to the economy and to the image of Sardinia".
