VENTOTENE. Elly Schlein’s Europe is not that of Giorgia Meloni. To mark a “fundamental” ideal and political distance, the secretary of the Democratic Party has come as far as the island of Ventotene, the cradle of the federalist project of the United States of Europe. He arrives by ferry with all the dem secretariat, they go up in procession under the sun to the cemetery, to pay homage to the tomb of the founding father Altiero Spinelli, they stop to take pictures in the “political confinement square”, to remember who was “deported on this island by the fascists,” recalls Schlein.

“The spirit of the Ventotene manifesto animates the commitment of the Democratic Party – he explains – ours is the Europe of the peoples, Meloni’s is the Europe of nationalist vetoes”. Then the secretary attacks the prime minister for the “failure of the international of nationalists, she was betrayed by the friends she chose”, she emphasizes herself as the prime minister begins her visit to Poland for the study days at the Conservatories Europeans. But Warsaw seems very far from this island, like the “ambiguity of those in the government who have attacked Europe for years and now risk throwing away the Pnrr money, which symbolizes the original dream of European solidarity”. Then, inevitably, a mention of the tensions within the majority, the clash between Matteo Salvini and Antonio Tajani on the alliances for the next European elections with the French right wing of Le Pen and the Germans of the AfD: «These controversies show the inexistence of the hypothesis of a right-wing majority in Brussels,” warns Schlein. Then he meets the secretariat in a restaurant overlooking the sea, there is still talk of Europe, of Pnrr, of the birth of a Pd club on the island, to be inaugurated in the afternoon. And the project for a school to be named after David Sassoli in the prison on the island of Santo Stefano, which can be seen on the horizon.
