Veneto, Salvini: ‘Never quarrelled with Zaia, proud that he will be the frontrunner everywhere’

Milan, 16 October (LaPresse) – ‘I am pleased, as secretary of the League, I am proud that Luca Zaia will lead the League's lists throughout Veneto in November and we will have an extraordinary result.’ This was stated by Deputy Prime Minister and League leader Matteo Salvini, speaking to journalists in Venice. ‘We have never argued with Zaia. He and I often talk in the morning, commenting on newspaper articles with amusement. Now there is a challenge, and there are five years of work to be done to continue good governance and improve it where possible,’ he added. When asked who Zaia was a problem for, Salvini replied: “Perhaps think of someone who did not want civic lists, personal lists. In my opinion, it is always a mistake to limit the choice for citizens and voters, but Zaia's name will be on all the ballot papers”.
