Tajani passes off the Government's sensational international debacles as successes and forgets Expo 2030 and the EIB: what nerve

In international politics as in life you cannot always win but you cannot always lose either. And if it happens, some self-criticism is the least that can be expected. Quite the opposite of what the Foreign Minister did with great cheek during Question Time in the Senate this week, Antonio Tajani. “With us, Italy wins,” the prime minister had said to Atreju Giorgia Meloni and Tajani followed suit, citing a series of very minor facts as supposed successes. But it fell to the leader of Italia Viva, Matteo Renzi, ring the alarm and remind Tajani of the resounding thud on Expo 2030 where theItaly it came third out of three and was not even able to collect the votes of its European partners: in total it received a paltry 17 votes out of a total of 182. And then the For , urged Renzi: what was the point of nominating the former minister Daniel Franco what if the Government was not able to weave the right alliances to achieve the objective? And then on with the list of a series of other international failures of the Meloni Government. “I don't see an Italy that wins – concluded Renzi scathingly – and the only Italian victory is the one in the Davis Cup tennis, but I find it hard to assign it to the Government: on this perhaps Sinner He's better than her." What a fool for Minister Tajani: immediately off the podium.
