The assets to focus on here «are those that characterize this land, Calabria and Reggio have all the fundamental assets, those that fascinate and attract, such as landscape, art, culture and food and wine. This is an extraordinary land for food and wine. I believe that Reggio Calabria has nothing missing to be a tourism destination.” Thus the Minister of Tourism Gianmarco Mazzi, in Reggio Calabria, speaking on the sidelines of a press conference held together with the regional councilor for Tourism, Giovanni Calabrese, and the centre-right mayoral candidate Francesco Cannizzaro.
«Cannizzaro explained well what the vocation of Reggio Calabria is, a gateway to the Mediterranean and Europe also in terms of the Mattei Plan. That is the role of the city. It’s clear that we need to work as a team. We have an alignment of the planets: Municipality, Region and national government. Francesco has this possibility, the most favorable situation. On the 26th, at 3pm, I’ll be waiting for him at the Ministry of Tourism to write, point by point, everything we need to do for Reggio Calabria and what we from the ministry can govern, also with the Region, to team up for the good of the city”, underlined Mazzi.
