If the centre-right is united, then they can be majority in Brussels. This was stated by Matteo Salvini, the leader of the far-right Italian party "League" at her final election rally, which took place last night in the Square of the Holy Apostles in Rome, BTA reported.
The main speakers at the rally were the leader of the "League", which is not running for the European elections, and General Roberto Vanacci, who is the leader of Salvini's party list in several Italian constituencies.
At the end of the rally, Salvini said that June 8 and 9, when Italians vote in the Euro vote, will be a celebration of the liberation of the European peoples. Salvini added that whoever does not go to vote in the Euro vote becomes an accomplice of the majority that is now in power in Brussels.
The leader of the "League” welcomed the alliance with French far-right leader Marine Le Pen, as well as the alliance with the French people "who will help us bring some common sense and some peace to the chambers that matter,", referring to the chambers of power in Brussels.< /p>
But he did not spare criticism of two Frenchmen – the governor of the European Central Bank Christine Lagarde and the French president Emmanuel Macron.
For Lagarde, Salvini said that she should no longer be free to "spread poverty and misery across Europe”. "The ECB mocked the savings, the mortgages, the wages, the lives of the Italians. It will have to be held accountable for its actions to the peoples of Europe”, said Salvini.
As for Macron, Salvini said: "Dear Macron, if you want war, take your helmet and go to war, but don't bother young Italians and Europeans”. In this way, he refers to the statements of Macron, who talked about the possibility of Western military going to Ukraine.
"Never a single Italian weapon or missile should be used to bomb Russian territory,” Salvini added.
In his speech, he also talked about Donald Trump. Salvini expressed hope that Trump will win the US presidential elections and added that when the Democrats win there, it only brings war and despair.
For his part, Vanacci stated that "Rome is a city with history and traditions, it is an eternal city. This Europe wants to take eternity away from us. Because of the policies of the last 20 years, they (the rulers in Brussels) have pushed us a poorer Europe. They want to push us a less free Europe, we are no longer free to speak”. And he added: "We are no longer free because our cities are not safe. We don't like this Europe anymore. This is a sadder and much more insecure Europe. He promised that the "League" will change that.
On Putin, Vanacci stated that he is not Stalin and therefore worth negotiating for peace.
Matteo Salvini and his party in the past were close to the Russian president and the ruling Russian party "United Russia". Salvini is in the same political family with the "National Assembly" of Marine Le Pen. She has recently been calling for unification with Meloni's party after the European elections. Salvini himself, who is deputy prime minister in Meloni's cabinet, also makes similar calls. And Meloni in several speeches in the last month talked about a new majority in the EU. In a similar direction was her speech at the big rally of "Italian Brothers" held on June 1 in the People's Square in Rome.
Salvini's party, according to the latest sociological forecasts, is fighting for fourth place in Italy in the Euro vote. Five years ago, in the then European elections, she was in first place from Italy.
