The Vice Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs of Italy, Antonio Tajani, stated last Wednesday (6) that the election of Republican Donald Trump as the new president of the United States does not represent a danger to democracy.
“I do not believe there has been a violation of democracy or that democracy is at stake.
I did not agree with the attack on Parliament, but now the situation seems completely different to me,” said the Italian foreign minister after being questioned by the press.
Tajani stressed that “Americans expressed themselves, made a choice, freely, in democracy.” “We continue like this and we will talk to the new administration, which leads a friendly country.”
The Supreme Court reaffirmed: citizenship is born with the person.
- New legal front opened
- Processes can still be filed.
- Individual assessment before any decision.
Finally, the vice-premier highlighted that, “for Italy, the president’s name does not count”, but rather “the United States does.
“Whoever the leader is, we work well with Trump, with Biden, with [Barack] Obama, [George] Bush, [Ronald] Reagan. It is a country with which there is a relationship consolidated by the presence of millions of Italian-Americans who have also made the history of the United States,” he concluded.HANDLE)
