After having wides out for a year Roberto Vannacci agreed to take the League cardwhich was delivered to him by Matteo Salvini on the last day of the party congress in Florence. The long delay of the General had pushed some of his sympathizers to solicit him to found a new party; Today’s passage in Florence is therefore interpreted by many observers as a success of Salvini who thus manages to harness Vannacci, who however does not only have admirers in the League, where more than a big tone his nose on the general positions, not very sensitive to the themes of autonomism. Just a year ago Salvini announced the acceptance of the candidacy for independent for the League by Vannacci for the European Championships. The leaders in all the circumscriptions, the general had made an incetta of votes, about half a million. Since then, Salvini’s courtship began for a formal entry into the League, while on the other side the “world on the contrary” movement, led by Colonel Fabio Filomeni, pulled the general in the opposite direction, that of the foundation of a new party. It is no coincidence that today, after the acceptance of the card by Vannacci, Filomeni (who had abandoned the movement in February), spoke of “a low blow” and accused the general of having “betrayed” the half million voters who had voted for him. «Today I am proud to deliver the League card. Better response to the people of the League and the anxieties and disturbances of many backgrounds, we are here and we will go far, “said Salvini by putting the party card in the hands of Vannacci. “From today we will go on together,” replied the general, who added words with which he manifested the awareness of the doubts existing in some Leagueists: “I thank the enthusiasts who give us courage, I thank the critics because the criticism is the fertilizer of progress and thank the perplexed because what does not kill us makes us stronger”.
Stop in Ursula and Rermo
In short, a dove of peace sent to the Zaia, to the hundreds, to the Molinari who also expressed their doubts in the recent past. And then from the general a long metaphor, appropriate to his military past, that of the paratrooper launch to prove that he is a man who plays for the team and not for himself: after the “launch in the void” with the candidacy and the election to the European Championships, “you are alone looking for the balance, trying to keep the equipment tight, trying to identify the place where you have to try to go. At a certain point the parachute opens “, and” then the real mission begins, because the launch is only the beginning. You have to look for the others, you have to tighten in a very strong square, because the mission is completed only together. Today is that moment. This is the moment in which together we will continue in the acquittal of our task ». The common mission is to move “convincedly” against the von der leyen commission and the European rearmament plan. Will Vannacci also have the Gallons of the League? Salvini has changed the statute by removing the ten years of militancy requirement in order to become a deputy secretary, a move that some commentators interpret as designed for Vannacci.
