Dear Meloni, perhaps a majority check is needed
If there is one thing that Meloni should do, after the meeting with Macron, it is to promote what was once called "majority verification". By putting our face to it this time, not just in words, that is, to the point of provoking early elections. Damato's Scratches
Rather than the merit, recognized by the good Claudio Velardi in the Riformista , of having reunited around his memory in the Montecitorio chamber the entire establishment of the country, including parliamentarians and guests, much more than what could have happened in the squares around to the giant screens, for which L'Identità decided to exaggerately title "Goodbye between so much politics and few Italians"; rather than this, I repeat, I would like to underline the last service that Giorgio Napolitano rendered to the country with his state funeral. Which provided the opportunity for a long and precious meeting between the Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni and the President of the French Republic Emmanuel Macron on the very hot topics of Europe, starting with the burning issue of illegal immigration.
From the misunderstandings, to say the least, of the past months and from the shows that continue to arrive from the Ventimiglia border, we have moved on to a climate of continental solidarity, as well as between the two neighboring countries. It could produce good results already in the European matches in the next few days, between Malta and Spain.
The greatest dangers on the path to fruitful agreements, despite the climate somewhat poisoned by the electoral campaign now underway everywhere in Europe for the renewal of the Strasbourg Parliament, and the new political balances that could derive from it, unfortunately also come from the centre-right majority, or right-center. Perhaps even more than from Germany whose government Giorgia Meloni has just contested, by writing to Chancellor Olaf Sholz, the financing discovered with a bit of strange delay for volunteer ships flying the German flag that rescue migrants in the waters of the Mediterranean to unload practically all of them on the Italian coasts.
When the president of the League and vice president of the Council Matteo Salvini pursues the Melonian defense minister talking about an "act of war", without even waiting for the response promised by Sholz to Meloni in an attempt – I believe – to clarify the situation and not to break the relationships, the arms frankly fall. And the eyes bulge when Salvini's deputy, one Andrea Crippa, metaphorically puts the Nazi SS helmet on Sholz and – belching, as Giuliano Ferrara rightly reproached him in the Foglio – reproaches him for the German occupation of Italy in 1943, after or while we changed allies in World War II.
If there is one thing that Meloni should do, after the meeting with Macron thanks to the goodwill – I repeat – of Giorgio Napolitano, and before rushing to her international appointments, it is to promote what was once called "majority verification ”. By putting our face to it this time, not just in words, that is, to the point of provoking early elections which, moreover, some observers and behind-the-scenes have already given the opportunity to attempt, as the oppositions are even worse off than the majority.
