Matteo Renzi has left the board of Delimobil, a Russian car sharing company founded by the Italian entrepreneur Vincenzo Trani. This was reported by the British economic newspaper Financial Times. The news was later confirmed by the former prime minister’s staff. Renzi’s choice was made in response to the Russian invasion of Ukraine. The leading senator of Italia Viva, continues the British newspaper, has sent an email to the directors of Delimobil to communicate his resignation with immediate effect. Trani is the director of the Italian-Russian Chamber of Commerce.
The same move was made by former Finnish Prime Minister Esko Aho, who left the board of Russia’s largest bank, Sberbank. Aho was a member of the institute’s supervisory board.
“Today I took the necessary steps to leave the board,” he confirmed to the media in his country.
