Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte finds it reasonable "for the political forces that support the government to try to dialogue also at the regional level. In Puglia and in the Marches, being divided exposes you to the risk of wasting a great opportunity". The Prime Minister said in an interview with Fatto Quotidiano.
"I expect the 5-star Movement to respond to Conte's appeal in these hours. The Democratic Party has already answered, I expect an answer on Marche and Puglia". The minister for regional affairs, Francesco Boccia , said this in Agorà on Rai 3, hoping that "an obtuse no" will be overcome. "If this answer does not arrive - he therefore warned - our request, where possible, for a separate vote will be inevitable, because if you do not vote the center-left candidate wins the right.
"The construction of alliances based on programs, on common objectives, even before people, is an added value, as the result of a common path, in which the contents come before the container. But it must be done only where the conditions are right. ". This was stated to Affaritaliani.it by the political leader of the M5, Vito Crimi, commenting on the words of Prime Minister Conte according to which "in Puglia and in the Marche the divided majority is a wasted opportunity".
"My presence is not taken for granted, clearly I am expendable at any moment if someone decides it from above. But don't ask me to bow my head, rather find the courage to cut it if you want to save Emiliano and Fitto's bad politics, because until I will be removed from this role that has been attributed to me, I will go on leading this opportunity for change. " Antonella Laricchia , a candidate of the M5S for the presidency of the Puglia Region, writes this on Fb , after an interview with Prime Minister Conte who invites the M5S to an agreement with the Democratic Party in Puglia and Marche.
"More important than my personal advantages (they promised me certain seats, guaranteed prestige) or Giuseppe Conte (a theoretically more solidified parliamentary majority), are the interests of the Apulians", writes the M5S candidate.
"They had perjured that the extension of the state of emergency was only a" technical "formality. Then, thanks to that extension, with a simple administrative act (without parliamentary passage or signature of the President of the Republic) they close the premises and introduce new restrictions on freedoms And now they are creating the conditions to be able to blow up the regional elections of 20 September if the polls were to be unfavorable to the Pd-M5S jumble. No jokes from an authoritarian regime, dear Conte ". This is what the president of Fratelli d'Italia, Giorgia Meloni , writes on Facebook .
