Messina, Matilde Siracusano: «De Luca-Schifani? No more wars, but there is no direction from me”

The dialogue between Cateno De Luca and the center-right starts from afar. The foundations were laid in October, during a Roman lunch with Arianna Meloni, the prime minister’s sister, directed by the president of the ARS Gaetano Galvagno and the “blessing” of the Ras of Fratelli d’Italia in Sicily, Ignazio La Russa. Another lunch, last Thursday in the center of Messina, then sealed the “pact” between him De Luca and Renato Schifani, whose presidency, moreover, was also born from a strong sponsorship, two and a half years ago, by La Russa himself. In the middle there is the rest of the centre-right, which for the moment is witnessing movements whose medium and long-term contours remain blurred. In the middle there is, for example, the Forza Italia deputy Matilde Siracusano, undersecretary for relations with Parliament, the first supporter, at the time of the choices, of Schifani’s appointment of Marcello Scurria as sub-commissioner for the recovery. The same Scurria who, today, seems to have been identified as the “sacrificial lamb” of this new De Luca-Schifani agreement.
