Ilaria Salis? Bertolda on the contrary
Accepting the candidacy for the European elections with the radical left risks becoming, for Ilaria Salis, the choice of the gallows on which to hang herself in her judicial misadventure in Hungary. Damato's Scratches
If Bertoldo has gone down in literary history for his cleverness in escaping the gallows by claiming the right to choose the one from which to hang himself, Ilaria Salis risks passing more modestly into political news, moreover with the consent of her father, at least according to the reconstructions of the majority of the newspapers, for a Bertolda in reverse. Who found the right gallows pretty quickly.
The acceptance of the candidacy for the European elections offered to it by the so-called radical left, which has everything to gain in visibility and has seized the opportunity offered by the retreat of Elly Schlein's Democratic Party on this path which the manifesto defines as "emergency", risks becoming the choice, in fact, of the gallows on which to hang himself in his judicial misadventure in Hungary . Where she has already been on trial as a prisoner, and for quite some time, on charges of having beaten up demonstrators.
Already not very sensitive, to say the least, to the public defense of Ilaria by the President of the Italian Republic Sergio Mattarella and to the initiatives taken behind the scenes, but not even that much, by the government in the persons of the Prime Minister herself, in excellent and strong personal relationships with the Hungarian counterpart Viktor Orban, and the Foreign Minister Antonio Tajani, magistrates and politicians of Budapest, whether separately or together, will certainly not change their opinion and attitude in the face of Salis's political choice to run for the European Parliament on the green and reds of the national boot. Which, moreover, are not doing so well in the polls as to make Budapest fear his election too much and the obligation, at that point, to release it, barring any hardening of the already tense relations that Hungary maintains and cultivates with the Union European Union of which it is also part.
If the election were to fail, the candidate would find herself in a greater emergency than the one her friends based on the manifesto. But friends, or rather comrades, perhaps more of the radical left than of the candidate who fell into what could turn out to be a trap rather than an offer or, in any case, a way out of prison. In which Salis spends waiting for the sentence and probably knowing the number of years she will still have to wait to get out of it.
However, good luck for our compatriot, even with little hope that the wolf will die, as they say on these occasions.
