Open war with Vitali – La Gazzetta del Mezzogiorno

GIUSEPPE ARMENISE

 The wound does not heal. Among the “Rebuilders” of Raffaele Lease and Berlusconi Luigi Vitali is increasingly open war on the choices of Forza Italy in view of the renewal of the Council re gional in Puglia. Only yesterday, after Francesco Schittulli had sided openly with Lease, was operated by the Secretary of Labor, Mas simo Cassano, a member of the center-right New Area-popular (Ap-Ncd), a mediation attempt to patch up the unity of the coalition . Attempt ended in nothing because this time not Vitali, who had said available at a table of coalition to be convened after Easter, but no later than Tuesday, but the same Schittulli declined the invitation. “It is a further loss of time – said the oncologist – and at present there is only one minute from ing for.” Cassano did not intend to give up, however. “Tuesday we will do the same table. We do not like the idea – says in the evening – a coalition split. We do not like the idea of ​​raising the white flag as of now. We do not like the idea of ​​losing regional elections without giocarcela way down. Respective tiamo the words of the candidate Schittulli, but we at Ap-Ncd continue to work the way for the unity of purpose, programs and candidate. “

 Now what happens? The hypothesis that Forza Italy can run alone, that is, from the outside coali tion center (with Fittiani) that continue to support Schit tulle, accredit pro prio name Vitali to most likely candidate for the presidency of the Region. The interested ga not to have been “invited” to take the field already “in the past, by Ber lusconi. Even if I do cre – explained – that is que once seeded stronger should be Bari. How Schittulli, that we found ourselves at the start because other political forces had sponsored. However – he added – if I have to, I’ll pull back. I am a soldier, and thus available ‘.

 Forza Italy, commissioner and divided in Puglia, is preparing therefore to live a real scis sion. On the topic does not seem to be possible candidates for agreement. “The so-called Rebuilders – says Vitali – until today I have asked to be in the running for the elections. None of them did. It’s not that I can go find them door to door. I’m already making lists. The spaces are as thinner in width, inevitably mind. And after Easter, the ul tima word on competi that you take to the cam little touches to Berlusconi. That’s all. “

 The response of fittiani, in the words of Consiglie reregionale, Luigi Mazzei: “Vitali tries to sotta waxes that the majority of the Group has defected meetings with him, not rico nizing methods and its mandate to reduce the elected closest to Lease. If you do not recognize that those close to Lease is Forza Italy in Puglia, can not claim to be recognized. Vitali honestly say that you have given as to exclude friends Lease from the list of Forza Italy. Assume the responsibility not to offer the possibility of an Apulian alternative to bad government Vendola and Emiliano. Or – concludes Mazzei – proves otherwise, and now with the facts. “ ->
