Tajani ‘unloads’ Di Maio as the new EU envoy for the Gulf: “He is not the government’s candidate”. Wrath of the League: “Shameful Choice”

Louis DiMaio EU responsible for the Persian Gulf? The majority does not agree with the choice of the High Representative for foreign policy, Joseph Borrell. Which considers him “the best candidate” to hold the position, as Borrell wrote in the letter sent to all the European representations. And the deputy prime minister and foreign minister Antonio Tajani he points out precisely this: “It is a choice of Borrell’s, legitimate, Di Maio is not the candidate of the Italian government and ‘I have always told Borrell, he was a candidate before”. says the current force minister of Foreign Affairs speaking on ‘Mezz’ora in più’ on RaiTre.

The blue is also against the choice of the former 5S Maurice Gasparri: “Borrell’s hypothesis is absurd and shameful. It disqualifies those who propose it and the European Union itself. Of But I it is wholly inadequate. The mere fact of taking it into consideration puts those who do it into ridicule. Enough of these incompetent chair grabbers. Of Stefano former undersecretary grillino would have been in office in violation of the laws on conflict of interest. And now Say But I he longs for roles he is unable to fulfill. Who can prevent this indecency”.

The Wrath of the League

A “shameful choice” that of Borrell, to want Di Maio special envoy of the EU for the Persian Gulf. “The Italians voted: they chose and continue to choose the center-right, not the left or the grillini. That of Brussels is a shameful indication, an insult to Italy and to thousands of clever diplomats”, refer sources from the League.

“The choice of Josep Borrell to indicate, in a letter sent to the Member States, Luigi Di Maio for the post of EU envoy for the Persian Gulf, is politically outrageous. A decision which also represents an affront to the will of the Italians who last September 25 they clearly expressed themselves by choosing the center-right and not grillini or dem”, comment the senators of the League in the Foreign Affairs and Defense Commission in a note: Marco Dreosto, Andrea Paganella and Stefania Pucciarelli.
