Enrico Letta is in the Nazarene

"I admit it. The emotion does not fail to go up again to the Nazarene, more than seven years later. #IocisonoPD. See you at 11.45", Enrico Letta wrote on Twitter, publishing two selfies that portray him in front of the headquarters and then inside the elevator of the Nazarene, where he had not set foot since 2014, when he entered it for a management meeting, before the party decided to replace him for the presidency of the Council.
I admit.
The emotion does not fail to rise again to the Nazarene, more than seven years later.

"
It is time to clearly define the soul and identity of our party and at the same time a new model of development
", said the
president of the
Democratic Party Valentina Cuppi
, opening the national assembly.
In addition to Cuppi and Enrico Letta, Andrea Orlando, Peppe Provenzano, Walter Verini, Cecilia D'Elia, Brando Benifei, Chiara Braga, Nicola Oddati are present at the Nazareno for the first time in videoconference. , Caterina Bini, Luigi Zanda, Stefano Vaccari.
"Today I formally notify the national assembly of Nicola Zingaretti's resignation as secretary. His resignation was a very strong political act that pushes us to a profound analysis of the party, which questions us about being together, about pluralism - has said Cuppi - It was evident that he wanted to shake up the party, to make sure that the problems that exist emerge in a clear and transparent way. Now it is up to us to seize the opportunity. We must face the dynamics of internal battles between areas that instead to enrich pluralism risk crystallizing in the struggle between currents ".
The national assembly of the Democratic Party voted Walter Verini national treasurer of the Democratic Party
with 775 votes in favor, 4 against, 23 abstentions.
Verini's appointment is thus ratified after months, since due to Covid the national assembly had no longer formally met.
