The majority are discussing the possibility of an extension of the state of emergency linked to the pandemic which expires on 31 July. Salvini and Meloni say they are against the hypothesis. "We are at 95% vaccination coverage for the over 80, the frail are all sheltered -
says the leader of the League speaking at the ANSA forum
- from 60 years upwards there are 3 million Italians discovered. On children, "caution is needed before mass administrations and open days". "I think it would be a good message, as if to say the worst is over", underlines Salvini. "We haven't talked to Draghi yet - he explains -
but in my opinion there are no conditions for dragging the state of emergency.
State of emergency, Salvini: "I would not extend it, the data say so"
"It is a hypothesis that would be crazy and that sees us clearly against", says the leader of FdI.
"A year and a half after the outbreak of the epidemic - he underlines - it is no longer acceptable that the most elementary rules of democracy and the principles of the rule of law such as freedom of movement and business can be trampled on or violated by the Government in the name of emergency:
2021 must be the year of the return to normalcy
: our legal system is able to manage the pandemic with the ordinary powers and instruments it already has, in compliance with the Constitution and the prerogatives of Parliament ". Minister Gelmini replies:" The evaluation - she says - will be made by the Government with the support of technicians and the Cts. The extension should not be abused but the Delta variant should not be underestimated. Mistake that the Government will not make '".
