Milan, Apr 19 (LaPresse) – How is the relationship with Elly Schlein? "Mutual respect, with the awareness that we represent two different political forces, but we can build a solid program that allows us to remedy Meloni’s failures and govern for five years." This was said by M5S leader Giuseppe Conte in an interview with Corriere della Sera. Asked about Silvia Salis, he replied: "We supported her as mayor of Genoa because she turned out to be the best candidate in a difficult situation; but I cannot say I know her in depth." Are you ready for an organic alliance with the Democratic Party? "We are bound by a dynamic rather than static conception of alliance. The alliance is not a prerequisite; it is a means to fight our battles alongside those who share a program written black on white," Conte stressed. Regarding openness to coalition primaries, Conte explained: "I made myself available because I saw in the referendum a strong desire to participate. Primaries are not in our tradition. I became convinced they could be the most effective way to find the best candidate, but only after agreeing on the program. The winner of the primaries will be the one who must implement the program. A path that must be built intelligently, to unite the progressive camp rather than divide it."
