Everyone, at open mics, says they are "optimistic". But the solution for Sardinia, three days after the delivery of the symbols for the regional elections, is still not there. Giorgia Meloni, Matteo Salvini and Antonio Tajani, who also met at Palazzo Chigi in the morning, addressed other issues, from migrants to the Middle East, but did not talk about regional issues. At least officially. And even the fact that they still don't talk about it in its own way is newsworthy, given that from the center-right parties everyone says that it will take the word of the leaders to put an end to a clash that has been going on for days, with the League that has stuck to the encore of Christian Solinas, Fratelli d'Italia that wants Paolo Truzzu and Forza Italia that remains on the sidelines but in the meantime, To avoid misunderstandings, he says on every occasion that Vito Bardi is not touched in Basilicata. On the contrary, after we hear about the summit in the morning, everyone is rushing to deny that the regional issue has been addressed. It's hot, because no one wants a break in the center-right, but we still can't find the right balance. Salvini would not succeed, say the well-informed, in splitting the coalition on the altar of Sardinia. But he would aim not to come out of the tug-of-war as a loser. There would also be other hot issues on the table, from autonomy to the premiership, up to the next round of administrative elections, which could also see Veneto called into question.
Clarifying that FDI will not back down is the leader of the group in the Chamber, Tommaso Foti, recalling that the premier's party has already given in Sicily last year. In response, the Lega blitz arrives, trying to force the hand of the governors' third term, presenting an ad hoc bill to the Chamber. "An option of common sense, of respect for democracy and territorial consensus," points out the signatory of the proposal, Alberto Stefani, a member of the Veneto League. And a green light to the rule would open up precisely the possibility of a ter (which would then be a quarter) for Luca Zaia. But the third term clashes with the coldness of the allies. Forza Italia, through the voice of Tajani himself, has already made it clear that it has "strong doubts".
And Via della Scrofa already has the name ready to replace the "doge", the Belluno president of the Industry and Agriculture Commission, Luca De Carlo. In the meantime, the possibility of a step back by Solinas is beginning to filter through, who will reunite his Sardinian Action Party. The polls, which would be on the table of the three leaders, would suggest the opportunity of a change of candidate. By bringing together the Lega groups, however, Salvini would not have entered into the merits of the regional elections, concentrating his speech on the European elections and inviting parliamentarians to get involved. After having "charged the League in view of the European elections", as the leader of the group in the Senate Massimiliano Romeo said, the Lega deputy prime minister, with his counterpart from Forza Italia, moved to Palazzo Chigi.
At first, a three-way meeting with Meloni seeps through, which suggests the long-awaited summit to untie the Sardinia knot. Then, however, during the day, it was better specified by Palazzo Chigi that it was an appointment (also attended by the Minister of the Interior Matteo Piantedosi and the Undersecretary Alfredo Mantovano) all focused on immigration. And on foreign policy, Tajani adds, which the prime minister would later see face to face. Without Salvini. The summit would focus on the crisis in the Red Sea (Italy will not participate in the U.S. mission but would aim for an all-European action) and in Gaza, where the government would like to strengthen humanitarian intervention.
