"I can hardly know what is happening in Italy, how can I judge what happened on the other side of the world. I understand the position of Navalny's wife, we need to clarify. But the doctors and the judges do it, we don't do it."
Deputy Prime Minister and Minister Matteo Salvini said this when speaking about the League's participation in last night's torchlight procession, during which party members were booed.
"The protests against the League by the left occur every day, on the TAV, on the Strait Bridge, on the tax and justice reform. - he comments when interviewed on Rtl 102.5 - We were in the streets to ask for clarity and the end of all open conflicts. All the nonsense about ties with Russia have been dismissed, the judges have said nothing exists."
