Di Maio, stop conflicts, the duty is to think about the country
“There are protests everywhere, not just in Italy. Even in Germany, Spain, France and the United Kingdom – where the infections are almost twice as many as ours – people take to the streets. There is anger, disbelief, suffering. It’s natural. They were moods children of uncertainty. Faced with all this, the obligation of a government is to react and to listen, but above all it is to assume its responsibilities. The vandals must be stopped, but the squares must be listened to. They are a sign that the government cannot ignore ”. Thus the Foreign Minister Luigi Di Maio in ‘La Repubblica’, where – quoting Pietro Nenni – he points out that today it is politics that is divisive. “It is not enough to dismiss the protests as if the protests were all the same – he writes in a speech – let’s look around us and as representatives of the institutions let’s try to understand that today one of the most divisive and conflicting messages, perhaps, is being given by politics. There is an Italy split in half, it is true, because the entire parliamentary arc is fragmented. There is a majority that continues to stamp its feet day after day, the oppositions that do not miss an opportunity to blow on the fire of the conflict and there are those who manage to challenge a decree that they helped to implement. It is useless to look for reasons in this chaos ”. “Our work must be another – he notes – we have duties that are mandatory this time, duties that evoke a sense of unity, fraternity, humanity. Each of us in the face of the clash, from now on, will have to find the strength to take a step back and give up. Give up the conflict to dedicate yourself to the nation. Today we are all called to trace the path that will lead us out of this nightmare. Who has more head, use it. Responsibility and institutional loyalty are needed ”.
