Matteo salvinire, the leader of the Italian opposition party Liga was attacked by an immigrant at a campaign rally in Tuscany on Wednesday, where regional elections will be held from 20 to 21 September. The Italian parties, without exception, condemned what happened.
The Directorate of Investigation Against Terrorism (Digos) has initiated an investigation to clarify what was happening in Pontassieve. According to police sources, for the moment it is ruled out that the aggressor acted intentionally.
Salvini campaigned in the streets of Pontassieve, near Florence, when a 30-year-old woman approached him and attacked him: he shot and then tore the shirt of the anti-immigration politician and tore the crosses from his necklace around his neck. The woman was quickly arrested. It turns out that he is of Ghanaian descent, living and working in Italy with a residence permit. Authorities said the woman had molested her.
The politician later said from the community side that he had not been hurt. “I have no anger, I do not want revenge, only sadness,” he wrote.
The incident was condemned by all the major parties. Giorgia Meloni, the president of the right-wing Italian opposition Brothers (FdI), citing the ruling parties, believed that those responsible should be found among those who portray their political rivals as enemies. He called the events unacceptable and expressed his solidarity with Matteo Salvini, the main politician of the ruling Five Star Movement (M5S) party. Luigi di maio it is.
Elections will be held in seven Italian regions from September 20-21. In Tuscany, which has been led by the left for fifty years, the League and the Democratic Left Party (PD) candidate for the region’s presidency are face to face in the polls.
