Calenda's Action to support center right in Basilicata - Politics. Former industry minister Carlo Calenda's Azione party, which is in the opposition at the national level, said Monday that it would support the centre-right candidate, incumbent Governor Vito Bardi.

The decision highlights the difficulties Italy's opposition parties are experiencing with efforts to try to find unity to put up a challenge to the right/centre-right alliance made up of Premier Giorgia Meloni's Brothers of Italy and Matteo Salvini's League.
