Enrico Letta quotes Liliana Segre, “do not be indifferent”. In just three words, he prepares his return to the Nazarene. He does it via twitter saying “Yes”: “I am here”. Ready, in short, to lead the Democratic Party. And he explains: “I am not looking for unanimity but truth in the relations between us”. The data, therefore, is taken. The former head of the government picks up where he left off, in the party he led together with Pierluigi Bersani (Letta was deputy).
«Today I am here – says Enrico Letta in his video message – Frankly, last Monday I would not have imagined that today I would have been here to announce my candidacy to lead the Democratic Party that party I helped to found and which today is experiencing a deep crisis. I do it for the love of politics and a passion for democratic values ». And he announces that he will speak on Sunday in the assembly but first he says I want to «thank Nicola Zingaretti. Deep friendship and great harmony binds me to him ». The resigning secretary Nicola Zingaretti, of course, thanks him, “from him a very right first step” and announces the addition of two 5Stelle exponents. The agreement – explain from sources linked to the former Pd secretary – was also signed (with their symbols) by Italia Viva and Action di Calenda. In short, the “Ursula majority” was born in the Lazio Region (at least that’s how the men close to Zingaretti define it).
Of course, Dario Franceschini was among the first to congratulate the choice of Enrico Letta, who with him at a very young age shared the deputy secretariat of the PPI with Franco Marini, then secretary, and Andrea Orlando. For Enzo Amendola, “Enrico Letta will be able to rebuild the unity of the party”.
