VIDEO | Bonaccini at the European Parliament: “The candidate for the regional elections in Emilia-Romagna must be chosen immediately”

The new European parliamentarian invites us not to linger on the indication: "Choose quickly"

BOLOGNA – Now we need to “quickly choose”the candidate for the regional electionsin Emilia-Romagna. The new European parliamentarian Stefano Bonaccini invites us not to linger too long, with 390,000 personal preferences received at the polls and the 36% gained by the Democratic Party in the Region. “In my opinion, with these results, with these data, we have the expectations of the people who look at us, have chosen us and vote for us. They expect the quickest possible choice from the center-left”, says Bonaccini.

“HE WHO ARRIVES AFTER ME WILL HAVE TO IMPROVE THINGS “

Who, commenting on the vote this afternoon in front of the Region in Viale Aldo Moro, adds something to the words of the mayor of the regional capital. Matteo Lepore: “Yes, it takes courage, and then it also takes consensus.” “Matteo is right – explains Bonaccini – I always say that whoever arrives after me shouldn’t think of leaving things as they found them, they will have to improve them. Furthermore, I have no doubts that there he will come after me, he will be better than me.” But Bonaccini also provides another piece of advice for choosing his successor: “Don’t start thinking about your own destiny and expect a great sense of responsibility from everyone. Because that What has paid off in these nine and a half years has been to never divide, even with a very broad coalition. If it is interpreted this way, regardless of the path and instrument that is chosen, I believe it will be possible to do well”, says a confident Bonaccini.

“WE START TO SEE MELONS”

I think that 24% no one expected it, we did it. Let’s start seeing Meloni.” Stefano Bonaccini, waiting for the Tour de France that he strongly wanted in Emilia-Romagna, uses a cycling image to represent the political situation following the European elections. “For a cyclist, seeing who is in front of him means psychologically knowing that you can reach it”, he observes. Of course the “right is still strong, very strong. We need to know that no matter how well we did, we need to reorganize a field.” In any case, Bonaccini acknowledges when commenting on today’s vote in Bologna, “we had a wonderful electoral campaign, thanks first of all to Elly Schlein.” Now “we don’t we can stop.”
