Raphael Glucksmann attacks Raffaele Fitto. The French S&D MEP believes that Fitto should not be appointed vice-president of the European Commission because the ECR did not support Von Der Leyen’s election. And the alliance system has not changed. Naturally
Naturally, the center-right opposes Glucksmann’s statements. “Simul stabunt, simul cadent.” This is how Fulvio Martusciello, head of the Forza Italia delegation in the European Parliament, responds to the French S&D MEP Raphaël Glucksmann, who declared his group’s opposition to the executive vice-presidency of Raffaele Fitto (Fdi, Ecr group). Last Monday, Glucksmann had declared on social media: “For us it is clear: there is no vice-presidency for the Italian extreme right.” «Glucksmann and his men – adds Martusciello – continue to threaten Fitto with an unloaded gun, forgetting that the audience of Teresa Ribera (Spanish executive vice-president, socialist, Ed) is defined after Fitto. It is clear that socialists play a dangerous game, made up of attacks without any real basis. Any attempt at delegitimization will fall on deaf ears and we will not be intimidated by sterile political pressure.” Martusciello then invites Glucksmann and the Socialists to focus on Europe’s real priorities. “Common challenges require responsibility and cohesion, not empty threats”, he concludes.
