Tajani does not destabilize Meloni (unlike Salvini)

Tajani does not destabilize Meloni (unlike Salvini)

It would be appropriate for us to start measuring the distances, perhaps less visible but no less significant, between Meloni and the Forzisti of the apparently calm Antonio Tajani. Damato's Scratches

We are all there measuring the distances from day to day, from hour to hour, within the centre-right, between Giorgia Meloni and the Northern League vice president of the Council Matteo Salvini. Of which my party colleague and friend Massimiliano Romeo, group leader in the Senate, has just explained in an interview with Corriere della Sera the aim of "recovering a bit of the identity that we have lost in recent years with the government of national unity, in which we paid a high price for our spirit of sacrifice for the common good."

It is, or rather it was naturally, the government of Mario Draghi, which was opposed only by Meloni's right, but in the end supported, and almost paradoxically inherited, his foreign policy. That is, the most important and visible part, which grew with the prolongation of the war in Ukraine and with the subsequent war in Gaza. And this without, having won the early elections in 2022, Meloni then losing consensus, unlike the continuous hemorrhages suffered by a Salvini who therefore went into acute fibrillation, to say the least.

THE DISTANCE BETWEEN MELONS AND TAJANI

We are all, I was saying, measuring the distances within the centre-right between Meloni and Salvini, or vice versa, in some way mirroring those between the secretary of the Democratic Party Elly Schlein and the president of the 5 Star Movement Giuseppe Conte in the field of controversial breadth or length. Yet it would be the case that we began to measure the distances, perhaps less visible but no less significant, at least in the process of maturation between Meloni and the Forzisti of the only apparently calm, or less agitated, Antonio Tajani, the other vice president of the Council. For whom the daughter of the late Silvio Berlusconi, Marina, has involuntarily – I hope – created some political headaches by spreading four unpublished pages by her father with a book by Paolo Del Debbio, handwritten almost on the verge of death to reiterate, strengthen, update and The nature of the party of which no one else after him will be the president is different: Forza Italia, naturally.

TAKE BERLUSCONI AGAINST MELONI

It emerges from those little pages, the drafting of which was recounted by Marina almost with tears in her eyes, that a certainly guaranteeist party like the left will probably never return to being, if it ever was, but competitive with it on the grounds of peace, overcoming borders, aid to the needy and more.

The reborn Unità directed by Piero Sansonetti complacently presented "Berlusconi's will" as "an anti-sovereign manifesto", or rather as "L'Anti Giorgia", in black, and "Il J'accuse del Cav", in red .

But it is Unity , you will say. Of course, it is the newspaper that belonged to the PCI, but on the same day in the Foglio the Forzista vice president of the Chamber Giorgio Mulè also referred to Berlusconi to criticize the party friends who were not at all guaranteeists who had unleashed themselves like any ordinary Melonians of justicialist origins against the Mafia-style cheats, so to speak, of the Apulian governor Michele Emiliano and the mayor Antonio Decaro.
