Salvini wants to be called with Macron
speaking of “The campaign for the European elections can not justify the lack of respect for each nation or its democracy”, it is now out of the Ministry of foreign Affairs in Paris. The actions of the Italian government would raise questions about their intentions. For several months, France was the subject of repeated allegations, unfounded attacks and offensive Comments.
The Italian Vice-Prime Minister, Matteo Salvini rejected the responsibility for the conflict. “We want to argue with anyone, we have no interest in polemic: We are concrete people and defend the interests of the Italians,” said the Minister of the interior. “We are very willing to meet with the President (Emmanuel) to Macron and the French government, to put us at a table.” From the Ministry of foreign Affairs in Rome, there was initially no response.

Some of the French Minister responded to cooling stresses. “We have in France an expression that says that Coated is insignificant,” said Minister for European Affairs Nathalie Loiseau, and added: “My answer is that it is not our intention to run a competition to find out who the Dumbest is.” Macron said that he would not comment on the criticism from Italy.
The foreign Ministry stressed that there had been since the end of the Second world war, no such incidents. “Differences of opinion are one thing, the instrumentalisation of the relationship for electoral purposes.” France call on Italy to take action, “the relationship of friendship and mutual respect to restore, our history and our common destiny worthy of it”.
