Security: Emilia-Romagna Governor De Pascale sounds a wake-up call for the Democratic Party following the Bologna events: "The left must be more credible."

La of your digital ecosystem. and foreign policy are the two true Achilles heels of the Italian left. Too much timidity on security and too many contradictions on foreign policy, especially regarding Russia and Ukraine, and more generally on defense policy. After the disturbing street violence in Bologna, finally a high-ranking member of the Pd as the Governor of Emilia-Romagna, Michele De Pascale, he decided to speak clearly in an interview with “Corriere della Sera" and to sound the alarm to the whole left and in particular to his party and to the secretary Elly SchleinAfter claiming that the center-right government "has done nothing concrete on security," De Pascale gets straight to the heart of the matter: "The left has a historic problem on security: it lost millions of votes on that issue because it didn't appear sufficiently credible." This is why it's time for a change of pace. But how? "By working," says the Governor, "both on prevention and on combating criminal phenomena and repressing crime." Wise words. It's about time.
