TURIN. The government decrees the red zone for Piedmont and the president of the Region Alberto Cirio joins the controversy unleashed by his Lombard colleague Attilio Fontana over alleged unequal treatment compared to other regions. And in doing so, he unleashes the ire of the mayor of Turin, Chiara Appendino.

“I did not sleep last night. I spent hours rereading the data, region by region, trying to understand how and why the government decided to use such different measures for very similar situations. Why did we want to make such important decisions based on data that is at least 10 days old? “Ataca Cirio, who for two days, with Fontana, tried to soften the government’s position and now affirms that” the net improvement in the RT of Piedmont (which fell in the last week thanks to the prudent options that the Region had already been able to adopt ) has not been taken into account ‘. “I wonder why a different rod was used for regions with serious situations,” Cirio again aired, announcing a new offensive against Rome: “I want to have the logic of these elections explained to me. Respect for institutions is part of my culture And I respect the state. But Piedmont also deserves respect. The Piedmontese and the many companies that may not reopen deserve it. And for them I demand clarity from the government. ”
Appendino’s reaction
It is a tough message, written early in the morning. Inevitably, a way to place full responsibility on Rome for the limitations that will fall on Piedmont from Friday. A way that triggers the equally harsh reaction of the mayor of Turin, who responds closely by publishing the photo of the line of ambulances in front of the hospitals in Turin to demonstrate how the situation is very serious and that discussing with other regions in this situation has little sense. .
“Now we must immediately put in place a detailed and concrete plan that moves us to the lowest risk range and that gets Turin and Piedmont out of the blockade as soon as possible. Thousands of Piedmontese are blocked in their homes by a health system that, according to the Region itself, is not holding. Thousands of businesses are forced to close and may never reopen, ”Appendino said. A way of saying that, regardless of the decisions made in other regions, the situation in Piedmont made the red zone inevitable. “Every minute lost in controversies is one minute less spent solving problems. Now you have to roll up your sleeves and work your stomach to leave in 14 days, period ».
