The League is lying in saying it has asserted all ties with Vladimir Putin's United Russia party and a confidence movement in League leader, Deputy Premier and Transport Minister Matteo Salvini for his supposedly pro-Putinstances will go ahead, centrist opposition Azione (Action) partyHouse Whip Matteo Richetti said Tuesday.
"The League's statement contains a new lie: now they explain tous that after Putin's invasion of Ukraine that text is no longer valid, but actually that accord contains an automatic renewal clause. "
The truth is that Salvini's ambiguities on Russia are all but clarified and it is for that reason that we are going ahead with our no confidence motion, convinced (of its validity)"
