Copasir, here are the latest quarrels between Lega, Fratelli d'Italia and Forza Italia

Elio Vito (Forza Italia) and Adolfo Urso (Brothers of Italy) resigned from Copasir chaired by Volpi (Lega). All the reasons for the tensions between the three center-right parties over the Copasir presidency

The hearing of Undersecretary with responsibility for Intelligence Franco Gabrielli has begun at Copasir. In addition to Elio Vito (Fi), who resigned from the Parliamentary Committee for the security of the Republic (Copasir) due to the non-step backward of the Northern League president Raffaele Volpi, the vice president Adolfo Urso (FdI) is absent – as already last Thursday. The two parliamentarians ask that, as required by law, the presidency of the body is assigned to a member of the opposition. But Matteo Salvini's League is not of the same opinion and aims at the resignation of all members; indication not shared by the other commissioners. While Brothers of Italy appeals to the Quirinale,

Here are the latest news.

ELIO VITO DI FORZA ITALIA RESIDES IN DISPUTE WITH THE LEAGUE AND VOLPI

Elio Vito, deputy of Forza Italia, resigned from the Parliamentary Committee for the security of the Republic (Copasir). This was communicated by the same blue parliamentarian with a letter to the President of the Chamber Roberto Fico. “Mr. President, it is with regret that I inform you of my resignation from the Parliamentary Committee for the security of the Republic – writes Vito in the letter to the President of the Chamber -. It is no longer tolerable, in such an important body and in such a delicate moment, the persistence of a situation that does not correspond to the law, with an exponent of the majority in the chair. It is clear – adds the forceist exponent – that in order to resolve this situation, I should not be the one to resign, but I hope that this gesture indicates the way of respecting the institutional rules, to those who should have already followed it. Sincerely". A position in clear controversy with Volpi's (Lega) decision not to resign, also given that no precise indication has come from the presidents of the Chamber and Senate, based on legal opinions collected.

ALSO LEAVES THE URSO OF BROTHERS OF ITALY

Adolfo Urso delivered a letter to the President of the Senate Elisabetta Alberti Casellati with which he "resumes his mandate" as a member of Copasir. "Having acknowledged that your call for a political solution has so far not been answered by the majority groups and the subsequent request of the Copasir president for all the members of the committee to resign, I express my intention to make available the mandate with the other members who will have a similar attitude if you believe that this could serve to settle the question ”, Urso wrote to Casellati.

THE POSITION OF THE LEAGUE AND VOLPI ON COPASIR

To resolve the issue, among the proposals put forward by the League's president of Copasir, Volpi, there is the one that invites all members of the Committee to "hand over their mandate to the presidents of the chambers, who, in an informal but clear and public way" they could thus guarantee "the recomposition of the same with five members of the opposition, thus allowing among them the free choice of the president". The other proposal to overcome the Committee's impasse: "Copasir, in its current structure of composition and presidency, assumes the burden of political synthesis, of working for an amendment to law 124/2007 (the legislative reference for the secret services and Copasir itself) to be then proposed to the parliamentary halls ". Volpi – in a note – says: "I think it is a mistake to unload political tensions on a Committee so particular in its functions, which up to now has carried out an important job thanks to all its members".

THE OPPOSITE STYLE PRAYERS OF DIETROLOGY

Among other things, in Northern League circles, a very critical note from Dagospia circulates with particular appreciation towards Urso that Fratelli d'Italia has nominated for the presidency of Copasir. A jab towards opposing conspiracies on the League's interest in maintaining the Copasir presidency due to Russiagate-Savoini.

MELONI APPEALS TO MATTARELLA FOR COPASIR

"The Copasir case must hopefully be resolved also with an intervention by the President of the Republic". This is the request of Giorgia Meloni, which arrived two days ago and does not hide that she is "a little struck by the fact that the President of the Republic, on this fact, has decided not to say a word".
