More sparks between Carlo Calenda and Matteo Renzi. The two are at odds and the Azione leader does not miss an opportunity to attack the former prime minister, which also happened in the Sky Tg24 interview: “Renzi dropped the single-party project between Azione and Iv. Want to drop groups? He has to take responsibility for this and he has to explain it to us. I will not abandon the groups, on the contrary, we will vote for Enrico Borghi, leader of the group in Palazzo Madama. If he goes to Forza Italia or joins the majority, he will take down the groups. It’s a choice Matteo Renzi will make and I won’t. The groups are formed from the popular vote of a political formation that had my name on the ballot box and promised a democratic space. If there are in the middle the names of the people who led the political programs, I will not leave the groups”.
“I believe that – the frontal attack of Calenda – Italia viva had its hands free to argue with the majority of the government, such as the defense of Santanchè until the bitter end and the fact that yesterday they voted with the government to ban synthetic meat. I don’t know what they want to do, but I’ve seen signs for a long time. Renzi has refused to be a single party and I see signs of a shift to the right. So what’s the use of talking about the Conte government and becoming the champion of the Covid inquiry commission given the current health situation? You had ministers in the government, but what’s the use.” There is no peace between the two, the relationship is now at a dead end.
