"We hope that Sanremo remains the festival of Italian song and nothing else
".
Thus the Minister of Infrastructure and Transport,
Matteo Salvini,
in the light of the announcement of the speech, with a video message, by the President of Ukraine
Volodymyr Zelensky
at the Sanremo Festival.
"They will have made their assessments, what I hope is that the war will end as soon as possible and that the stage of the city of flowers will remain reserved for music," says Salvini.
Pressed by reporters, on the sidelines of the inauguration of the Homi Fair, on the decision to host the Ukrainian president, Salvini replies: "I don't judge. It's the last week of the electoral campaign and if I have time to watch Rai Uno it will be to listen to songs, not to listen to anything else".
"I love the Italian song", adds the minister and leader of the League -.
I'm a lover of the old-fashioned festival.
I'm not saying who I hope who wins otherwise I'll damage him and he'll definitely come last.
I have my preferences but in the singing field, not in other fields ". As for Zelensky, Salvini closes the topic with a joke:" I don't know how he sings, I have other preferences ".
