Meloni: “Ready to be prime minister and govern. Authoritative dragons but hangs to the left “

Mario Draghi is authoritative, but hangs to the left. This is a bit like the synthesis of the considerations that are drawn from Giorgia Meloni’s answers to the questions posed by Lucia Annunziata in the “Half Hour Plus” program. “I didn’t make a choice on the name of the future President of the Republic. If Draghi became president he would go to vote, but I have no elements to say that the Brothers of Italy could support him. I try to evaluate his figure, certainly authoritative, and I say that authority is a good thing but it must be exercised ». Then he adds: “Within the government it seems to me that Draghi hangs more on the other side.” So, the examination on the government that the Brothers of Italy does not support and the battle against Covid. “The Draghi government – underlines the leader of the Brothers of Italy – is in tragic continuity with the previous government. Indeed, Draghi is more rigid than Conte on closures. I am not homesick for Conte, but I was expecting something more courageous. I don’t expect much from his majority – he added – but for the authority that Draghi has, I thought there could be more courageous initiatives ». Finally, relations with allies: «Between Salvini and me they are constant. We hear from each other all the time. Sometimes – he explains – journalistic reconstructions do not help, then we hear and laugh at each other … I fight the left and the M5S, I hope to give a hand in this also to the center-right who has decided to stay in government and when this experience it will end we will run together ». Therefore, the passage on “his” future, on personal ambitions: «I am ready to do what the Italians ask me to do, understanding the responsibilities and difficulties, I would not do it lightly – explained the leader of FdI-. I am appalled by politicians who take great responsibility with the face of someone who wins a beauty contest, my hands would shake. But what would politics do if I weren’t ready to measure myself? Then I say I want to go there with FdI, with a ruling class, with people I can contract with, with a job we have done ».
