The anti-Draghi post posted on Instagram by the grillino treasurer Claudio Cominardi, where the premier is portrayed on the leash of the American president Joe Biden, is discussed. Asked by reporters on the sidelines of a conference at Sapienza, M5S leader Giuseppe Conte dismissed the controversy as follows: “Don’t let me talk about a posted photo, they told me it’s graffiti … let’s not give importance”.
The foreign minister and leading exponent of the Five Stars Luigi Di Maio, on the other hand, distances himself clearly. “That image is unacceptable, I totally distance myself from it, we as a political force support the government, we support the Prime Minister,” Di Maio said on the sidelines of a Coldiretti event. Then, in reference to the image, he added: “That is not the right to criticize, that is something to distance yourself from, I hope the movement will distance itself as soon as possible”.
But also several parliamentarians did not take Cominardi’s photo or Conte’s statements well. “I don’t know if Cominardi’s post or Conte’s words are more embarrassing. That post is indecent and the leader of the main political force that supports the government should not tolerate it, ”MP Gianluca Vacca told beraking latest news. Also controversial on social media Sergio Battelli, president of the EU Politics Commission, who replying to Cominardi via Instagram writes trenchant: “What’s the good of the stuff?”.
