Tussle in the Chamber in the Chamber over Cospito and 41bis. Donzelli (FdI): “The left is with the state or with the terrorists”. Fury Pd: “Shame”

It only takes a moment and the classroom explodes. The establishment of the Anti-Mafia commission is debated. Take the floor John Donzellipowerful deputy of Fratello d’Italia, very close to Giorgia Meloni, vice president of Copasir, with top positions in the party and recently also chosen as commissioner of the Roman federation of FdI. He refers to a visit to the anarchist in prison, in the past, by some parliamentarians of the Democratic Party, including Andrea Orlando, Walter Verini and Debora Serracchianicarried out among other things in the exercise of their prerogatives as parliamentarians. And quote parts of the statements of
Alfred Cospito reported by Republic in relation to 41 bis.

Here are Donzelli’s words that light the fuse in the Chamber: ”So I want to know, President, if this left is on the side of the state or the terrorists with the mafia. We want to know it in this House today!”. An unacceptable equation for the Democratic Party. An insult that requires an immediate apology. In an instant, chaos explodes in Montecitorio. Paonazzo takes the floor Frederick Fornarothen tap to Deborah Serracchiani: “Those who think they can divide us into good and bad on such delicate issues are wrong. It was a serious mistake to intervene this morning with words that should have been avoided in the most absolute way”, said the leader of the Democratic Party who invited “Giovanni Donzelli to to be ashamed”. They are furious, they ask for an intervention by the Brothers of Italy group, they demand a total reverse from Donzelli. Which, however, in the following minutes, does not arrive. Indeed, the melonian Lucaselli he relaunched: ”The question arises from a fact: is it true or not that some MPs from the Democratic Party went to see Cospito? Donzelli in the field of political criticism has simply reported a fact”.

The centre-left chooses the hard line. Talk too Enrico Letta, asks for ”respect”. What does a visit to prison by some parliamentarians have to do with the mafia? ”So – attacks the green Angelo Bonelli – it’s hard to go on! Honorable Donzelli, you said nonsense. Excuse me”. The case shows no signs of closing, the controversy rages.
