Who pulls the government against De Carolis at Anas

Pd, Lega and M5s criticize rumors that the government is about to appoint the former manager of the Atlantia group in Adr, Ugo De Carolis, at the top of Anas

Political storm over Anas, the state company chaired by Claudio Gemme and led by Massimo Simonini .

The majority asks the government to report immediately in the Chamber to the Chamber "on the rumors that Ugo De Carolis in the running for the Anas summit". If the news were to be confirmed it would be "an absolutely unacceptable fact", "an insult to the families of the victims of the Morandi Bridge", said Edoardo Rixi of the League, Davide Gariglio of the Democratic Party, Simone Valente of the M5s and the group leader, speaking in the Chamber. by Leu Federico Fornaro. Brothers of Italy joined the request for information from the government.

WHO IS DE CAROLIS

Born in Rome in 1965, de Carolis joined the Atlantia group in 2008. Trained as a mechanical engineer, he was previously in Procter & Gamble, General Electric, Fiat and Cnh and in Telepass, the subsidiary of Autostrade per l'Italia. He was also on the board of directors of Edizione, the safe with which the Benettons control the financial empire. In April 2020 he left Adr following the controversy over the strange case of the sale of the company's shares, underlined the Fatto Quotidiano . A few months earlier, in January, he sold the securities before the downgrade decided by the rating agencies, collecting 573 thousand euros.

THE PUFFS OF THE LEAGUE SULL'ANAS

“I believe it is appropriate to clarify the rumored appointment of Ugo De Carolis at the top of Anas, a manager closely linked with the Atlantia group during the management of Castellucci who would not be in any way appropriate. I hope that Minister Giovannini will deny these rumors, 'said the Ligurian senator of the League, Stefania Pucciarelli. Also for the deputy of the League, Flavio Di Muro, former rapporteur of the Genoa decree, “entrusting the Anas summit to Ugo De Carolis would be a political error and a serious lack of respect for Genoese and Ligurians. The League asks Minister Giovannini to deny the rumors that indicate the trusted manager of the Atlantia group in the Castellucci era as the next CEO of Anas. Otherwise, take political responsibility ".

DEM CRITICS TO DE CAROLIS

"If what was anticipated by the press on the name of the new CEO of Anas were confirmed, it would be a very serious and unacceptable fact". Pd deputies Davide Gariglio and Franco Vazio declare this in a note, commenting on the indiscretions relating to the forthcoming appointment by the board of directors of Ugo De Carolis as to Anas. “De Carolis – continue in the press release – was CEO of Aeroporti di Roma and director of Edizioni, the holding company of the Benetton family. He is a manager of the same industrial group that, through Aspi, has disastrously managed the motorway system, bringing the country and Liguria in particular to its knees; a group to which the administration accuses of having preferred an entrepreneurial policy aimed at maximizing profits at the expense of road safety. Appointing De Carolis at the helm of Anas represents a slap in the face to the Italians and a choice that is not only incomprehensible but even provocative. The Government blocks this appointment and comes to the Chamber to report the developments of the affair '.

THE NO OF THE 5 STARS TO DE CAROLIS IN ANAS

Unleashed the 5 Star Movement. “Scenarios are chasing each other in the press that are more than troubled and that Ugo De Carolis would like to be the new CEO of Anas. We are talking about a trusted man of the Benetton family and the former CEO of Autostrade per l'Italia, Giovanni Castellucci, as well as former number one of Aeroporti di Roma, another Atlantia subsidiary. Well, such a hypothesis is inconceivable and unacceptable, therefore we ask for clarification as soon as possible from the Government and from Minister Giovannini ”. Thus in a note the senator M5S, Danilo Toninelli. “With these gentlemen – he adds in a note – we have already given: the battle carried out by the M5S to bring the 3 thousand km of motorways controlled by Atlantia back under public control was hard and necessary. Seeing these gentlemen leave the door and return through the window would be a disgrace: not only for the victims of Morandi, but for all Italians. Anas controls over 30,000 km of roads: if De Carolis is a boutade, it is really bad taste. If it were not, the choice must be changed with a person suitable for the role ".

THE AMAZING OF THE RENZIANI

Even the Renzians turn up their noses. “Parliament knew nothing, and it seems serious to me, and I would advise President Draghi to centralize and follow these appointments one by one because in a few days there have been three incidents, Arcuri, De Carolis, and the changes in Justice. The risk is that from a candid curriculum, you end up with a Dalmatian style curriculum ”. This was stated by the deputy of Italia Viva, Michele Anzaldi, questioned by the AGI on the appointment of Ugo De Carolis at the top of Anas.
