Coronavirus, Giani: “Tempted by the blockade, but strong decisions must be national”

Florence, October 24, 2020 – “Can you imagine if I made the decision of a emergency shutdown? Looking at the data, I was also tempted, then I saw the level of sustainability of what my ordinances could be and took other measures. What happen? The cars from Lazio instead of coming to Tuscany go to Umbria and Marche to enter Emilia Romagna from the other side. We are a united countryAs article 5 says, we are a single and indivisible Republic, which promotes and recognizes local autonomies. If we want strong measures, they must be homogeneous throughout the country ”.

This was told to ‘Sky Tg24’, the president of the Tuscany region, Eugenio Giani. “I could hear the government encouraging us to take more restrictive measures and I could understand that the government expects restrictive measures at the local level as I have assumed – Giani added – I have not made any forward leaks, nor have I avoided taking measures. If we want to deepen as happened in March-April, the measures are all the more credible if they come from the central government ”.
