Bonelli and Fratoianni: “Extraordinary result for Avs, it will be the cornerstone of the Pd-M5s alliance”

From the Greens and Left Alliance a clear message to the Schlein-Conte axis: "We will be decisive for the alliance, without the discussion it cannot begin". Optimism for Ilaria Salis, her release is "just a bureaucratic problem"

ROME – A 6.7% and that “half a million more votes” which are worth a victory, with the awareness that the result achieved “is only the beginning”, but also with the firm objective of bringing home the new MEP, Ilaria Salis, miss 170.00 preferences. The Greens and Left Alliance greets with great satisfaction what Angelo Bonelli, co-spokesperson, defines as “An extraordinary result”. “A clear, coherent and clear program both on the topic of opposition to the war and on our firm condemnation of crimes against humanity in Gaza, therefore the policies to combat the climate crisis. We all feel a great responsibility towards the country.” Bonelli said this from the party’s electoral committee during a press conference called to comment on the European results.

“What has been punished in Europe is the axis of the German-French war. We have always been pacifists. Our proposal was rewarded for being clear and coherent. We obtained half a million more votes than in the general elections. There is no political force that can claim a similar result. For us it is a beginning, not a finish line. From this stage we turn to Schlein and Conte, from tomorrow this responsibility is collective, and we will be the pivot of this alliance, without us the conversation can’t even begin. Now we want Ilaria Salis here free and ready to carry out her mandate.” This was said by Avs co-spokesperson, Nicola Fratoianni from the party’s electoral committee during the press conference called to comment on the European results.

“I am very moved by what happened. Ilaria made a courageous choice, she fought and dared for the ideal. He received 170 thousand preferences, and in the islands he received more preferences than Vannacci, the work must be completed, we must bring it home. He called me 15 times today because he’s obviously excited. The judge is informed of what happened and said that he has contacted the Hungarian Foreign Ministry which must provide him with the piece of paper at which point the judge will order immunity. Ilaria’s release is just a bureaucratic problem.” Finally, Roberto Salis, Ilaria’s father, spoke during the Avs press conference.
