Renzi courts the reformist Dems and challenges Schlein: "You try to get 41% in the European elections"

"Reformist friends, who are ferring us in the Democratic Party: they don't love you and Schlein wants your abjuration": this is what Matteo Renzi said at the national assembly of IV where he made bridges of gold to the reformist wing of the Democratic Party and pressed Schlein

Renzi courts the reformist Dems and challenges Schlein: "You try to get 41% in the European elections"

“Today whoever is a reformist in the Pd feels out of place. Reformist friends, what are you doing in the Democratic Party? Not only do they not love you but Schlein he asks you to abjure”. For Matteo Renzi the national assembly of Italy Viva in Naples it was an opportunity to chart the course in view of the 2024 European elections in which Iv hopes with RenewEurope to reach a double-digit result by widening the space "between right-wing sovereigns and left-wing populists".

Renzi: with Renew Europe we want to avoid the shift to the right of the European Parliament

In Europe “Meloni – argued the former prime minister and leader of IV – is trying to bring together the Popolari and the Conservatives but it is a plan that I want to blow up and the Renew Europe list is used to avoid Strasbourg slipping to the right. We want a new one Ursula majority and not a majority Giorgia ”. Which implies two things: to strengthen Iv and to manage the current political phase with great tactical intelligence. “If it can be sent under the government and it makes sense – explains Renzi – it is clear that we vote with the Democratic Party and 5 Stars, but if Melons goes ahead on constitutional reforms it is obvious that we are with you” in view of the premiership and a constitutional model inspired by that of the Mayor of Italy.

Renzi: No to settling accounts with Calenda

To strengthen Iv and in hopes of substantial clarification with Action of Carlo Calenda (“No to the internal settlement of accounts and no renunciation of Leopolda”), Renzi hopes to attract the disappointed of Forza Italy who do not like to hug with Salvini and above all to welcome the reformists of the Democratic Party and it is for this reason that he does not spare a few effective jabs at the new secretary of the Democratic Party: "Dear Schlein, with my 41% you have become a European parliamentarian, otherwise you would go on a school trip to Strasbourg".

Moreover, the European elections are held with the proportional system and do not require alliances. For the future we will see, also in function of the constitutional reform.
