(ANSA) - ROME, AUGUST 30 - "So far I have read my name in the newspapers. I am honored, but Salvini and the presidency of the Council will decide. It is certainly a choice that must be made with a view to strengthening the executive, so it is normal that made within the League, as has happened in recent months with another undersecretary of the Draghi government ". Thus the deputy of the League, Edoardo Rixi questioned by ANSA on his possible appointment as Undersecretary for the Economy, in place of Claudio Durigon who resigned on August 26 last. The previous case to which Rixi refers is that of Simona Malpezzidel Pd, who in March left the post of Undersecretary for Relations with Parliament to become the leader of the Dem alSenato group. The party colleague CaterinaBini took her place.
Returning from vacation in the mountains, Rixi says he is "sorry" for the step backwards made by Durigon but to have shared it: "He showed fairness to step aside when asked, in other parties it does not happen".
