Matteo Salvini and the Viminale case. The leader’s explosion with its own

A difficult match. A subtle balance between the need to keep the coalition compact and not let Quirinale and Europe down. The toto-ministri is in full swing, and at the moment the most difficult box to assign remains that of the Ministry of the Interior. This is the clear and stated objective of Matteo Salvini.

The leader of the League, according to some indiscretions collected by the AdnKronos news agency, in last Sunday’s highly armored meeting with the elected parliamentarians would have clarified his thoughts about his place in the government: “I think it is right that he returns to be the Minister of the Interior – he would have said briefly in his speech – I believe it’s a job that I know how to do, that I’m interested in doing, so I ended up on trial too.”

A heartfelt appeal, including applause and hymns, which League representatives would have made their own, asking that the leader be chosen to succeed Lamorgerse. Salvini would have reiterated that there are no subordinates: “I’m not interested in other positions, in other ministries.” But between the wishes of the leader of the Northern League and the possible reality are two not insignificant obstacles.

The first concerns the President of the Republic, Sergio Mattarella. Aware that Salvini’s name is, without many words, divisive. But, if possible, there is an even higher mountain to climb, the one represented by the Open Arms trial in Palermo. Lawyer Giulia Bongiorno, almost three years ago, did not hide her fear of the political consequences of these processes. “Trials are like bad diseases.” A prediction that is proving to be correct, also due to the lack of appeal that Salvini would have in Europe. A game that is anything but simple, the first real test of the future Premier, Giorgia Meloni.
