“Together different political forces” –

A day following the results of the second round of the legislative elections in France, the Italian left-wing parties are already ready to sing the Marseillaise together with Jean-Luc Mélenchon. Among them, as expected, also Elly Schlein. With the aim of throwing mud on the Meloni government, the secretary of the Democratic Party tried to send messages to possible, future allies. It happened on In Onda, the talk-show on politics and current affairs on La7 hosted by Luca Telese and Marianna Aprile. “The real surprise of these French elections is this extraordinary result of the New Popular Front, which also brings together different political forces. There is the French Socialist Party, there are the Greens who have had the ability to join forces by building a coherent and shared project for the future of the country”, declared the Democratic leader live.

Schlein then tried to identify the differences between Italy and France: “I think that instead we have a different job to do in Italy. We must not respond to a contingent element of concern. We must work today to build the alliance much earlier on the whys and not on the once morests”, he suggested. “I believe – he then added – that they had a great ability to unite on a coherent program and the agreement with the Macronian liberals on desistance was fundamental, but what was very striking was the great response of participation in yesterday’s vote”, he added.
