“I feel a little fascist. War? Zelensky’s fault»- Corriere.it

“It is no longer a crime to call yourself a fascist. It is the apology that is. Being a fascist isn’t, in my opinion.” To say it is the former Northern League mayor of Verona Flavio Tosi, now Forza Italia deputy. “Bossi,” he always says A Day as a Sheepon Rai Radio1, «he told me i was a str… and that I had brought the fascists into the League, and I replied that we are all a bit str… And between the two things I feel, if anything, more str…”. “I’m feeling a little str…, and a bit fascist. A little bit though», adds the blue parliamentarian.

Guns ready

My guns? «Obviously I don’t have it with me, taking them on a trip isn’t the best, I only keep them at home. I have four, three for defense and one for a range, gas. On the bedside table, where there is the lampshade, I keep only one, the Pardini, without the shot in the barrel. You have to swerve and then you can shoot», continued Tosi, «during the day I put the gun in the drawer, at home it’s just me and my wife, there are no children. So far I have never shot anyone but if there was someone who enters the room at night, who is not my wife, I would shoot ». On the radio they asked him: “Has it ever happened to you to get up with the gun to hear noises in the house?” «Yes, it happened to me a few times get up at night with a gun in my hand and the lights on, to see if anyone was there.’

«The war in Ukraine? Blame Zelensky»

“The war is Zelensky’s fault, because he’s the one who went to the other side with the tanks, there’s no rain on that.” Has Putin invaded the country? «Of this there is no doubt. But if there had been Poroshenko or a political president perhaps we would not have reached this point,” he added. When asked if Putin was therefore provoked, Tosi replied: «No. But there are diplomacies, services and a whole series of structures to avoid reaching that consequence. The moment your leader is a comedian perhaps certain schemes jump, Zelensky is not capable of governing because he was a comedian, he is not able to manage the situation due to lack of competence”. He thinks similarly to Berlusconi about Ukraine. «I fully agree with what Berlusconi said. Zelensky before becoming president, the day before, was a comedian. And maybe he could work as a comedian in the Mediaset networks instead of being the premier. It is a fact that if there had been a different president there probably would have been no war.” But Zelensky was democratically elected. “And what it means? In Italy the grillini were also voted and then they bitterly regretted it ». What solutions do you see for the Ukrainian conflict? «War ends if Zelensky agree to sit with Putin or vice versa. You have to sit down at a table to reach peace, as Berlusconi said, this is not our war, it is the conflict between the Americans and the Chinese”.
