Schlein, we nominate Decaro for European elections, among the best mayors

Among the candidatures of the Pd for the European elections is that of 'one of the most talented mayors of Italy, Antonio Decaro, who has contributed with his administration to the rebirth of his city'. This was said by the secretary of the PD, Elly Schlein to DiMartedì on La7.

On the territories, 'we try to stand together wherever possible' and 'we are stubbornly united not because the doctor ordered us to, but because the people ask us to, the people I meet in the street, even yesterday on the train asking me to build an alternative to the right, we feel this responsibility, I would like others to feel it too,' added the PD secretary.

"We are nominating Lucia Annunziata to lead the PD list in the south not only because she is a figure of great value as a journalist (unfortunately an untapped resource due to conditions that were not hospitable), but above all because of her great knowledge of foreign and international policy," Schlein then said.

Turning to De Caro, Schlein returned to the affair of the past few days. 'I would not have said those words but I would not have made that passage. But let's make it clear that Michele Emiliano is a magistrate and has always worked to put mafiosi in jail'. He went on to emphasise that 'Decaro's commitment against organised crime speaks for him'. As for the incriminated photo, Schlein noted that 'it seems to me that it has been clarified that it was taken at a St Nicholas party and that it happens that many people ask you for a selfie. It happens to everyone. I think it also happened with other photos of politicians who then had to explain themselves: Salvini with an ultra leader, or Meloni with one of the Spada clan...'.
