Salvini wants to resurrect the “Stretto di Messina” spa: the story of a company that cost 300 million without doing anything

When it was founded, the Head of State was Sandro Pertini, the Prime Minister Arnaldo Forlani, the Azzurri had not yet won the Mundial and in the Italian hit of the moment, “Maledetta primavera”, Loretta Goggi wondered “what’s the rush”. And in fact, there was no hurry: the “Stretto di Messina spa”, the company that probably tomorrow the Minister of Infrastructure Matteo Salvini will resurrect to supervise the construction of the bridge, was created in June 1981 and then it cost the state over 300 million without literally doing anything.
