Forza Italia President: “Policies against disasters are only optional. Banks are not taxed but they contribute”

From our correspondent
New York
– 28 thousand feet above sea level, in an Ita Airways flight New York, Foreign Minister and Deputy Prime Minister Antonio Tajani Responds to questions from Italian journalists sent to the UN General Assembly. The leader of Forza Italia opens a Contribution of banks to recovery of accounts Clarifies state and relationships Meloni, Salvini e Marina Berlusconi: “I am not a tool in anyone’s hands”.

How worried are you about the ongoing upheavals in the government, of which you are often the protagonist?
“Inner tension is us Against tax on excess profits It is not tense. If I propose the government will not fall Perfect school Or I write to CalderoliAutonomy. The government is stable,” he said.




















































Salvini’s sentence remains stable open arms?
“There are no reactions, nothing changes. And I hope he will be acquitted. Counting beliefs are final. I also find no legal basis for the prosecutor’s accusation, which seems to me to be an accusation aimed at reversing a political position. That decision on immigrants was taken by the entire Conte government, and the prime minister knew nothing about it.

Won’t you and Meloni leave Salvini to his fate?
“This is not a question of sympathy or friendship. It is a political reality that confirms the need for swift justice reform.”

Should ministers have a political umbrella to cover possible crimes?
“No, of course, but no one is deported and all migrants collected at sea cannot be taken to Italy. Fortunately, landings have decreased by 60%, thanks to the government.”

The government is dividedCatastrophe insurance. The corporation is against it and you?
“For families it should be optional, not mandatory. For businesses it’s already in place since the last budget law.”

Has it been decided to tax the extra profits of banks?
“We have always said no to taxes imposed from above. It is a different matter if we can make a deal with the banks to help them and make a contribution to the state coffers. A general tax will hit popular and cooperative credit banks, which provide loans to citizens and need to be protected.”

Doubtful if you are doing it to protect Mediolanum.
“FI has not taken a penny from Mediolanum, this is a disgraceful scandal. I have no interests, I do not take orders from the bank, I do not go on luxury holidays, I go to Fugi, I do not have a double life or a double family.”

If it’s not tax, what is it?
“I don’t have a one-time withdrawal in mind, the banks are studying technical solutions that allow them to put more funds in the state treasury, for example, without demanding specific payments.”

Gelmini and Garfagna leave Calenda but don’t return to her, are you disappointed or relieved? And is it true that he doesn’t like them?
“Why should I be disappointed? We’re not negotiating. They’re coming from the centre-right, They’d better go with Luby.”.

A good thing? Isn’t he angry?
“No! We’ll make the list in Emilia-Romagna with Lupi.”

Aren’t you concerned that the Prime Minister, like us moderates, is bent on strengthening the pro-Meloni party rather than himself?
“I don’t care about others, I go my way. Forza Italia is at 11% of the polls and there will be other entries.”

How is your relationship with the Prime Minister? Always tense?
“Always the same.”

And with Marina Berlusconi, who can deny that he doesn’t think much of her?
“I am nothing but a tool in someone’s hands. If you write that Marina despises me, and that someone else is going to expel me, you will tell me, ‘Let’s get rid of Melony and put the dragons.’ Marina does an interview about rights Just saying what he thinks, not taxing me. Berlusconi’s children and businessman friends are supporting us.

Marina saw Draghi before MelonyHe didn’t like that. You, were you neglected by Leta’s mediation?
“Giani Leta is a Fininvest person, he is not a member of FI and keeps business and party separate. He is a good friend, he often gives me great advice. Marina is an entrepreneur, she meets the people she wants. If there is a gentleman who does Competitiveness Report She is talking to us. It will not change if you meet the Prime Minister before or after him.

Wouldn’t Marina or Pierre Silvio be FI secretaries?
“It’s a picture of journalists telling each other.”

Will there be a change for Fito and Sant’Anse?
“For goodness’ sake! Substitutes are useful when political crises arise.”

Meloni’s selection to receive the Musk Prize at the Atlantic Council was controversial. Is it Trump’s wink?
“Musk is a great entrepreneur, I met him in Italy. I believe that Meloni’s choice is more entrepreneurial than political, not aimed at Trump. There are sympathies, but the government is neutral in the American campaign. We have always worked well with all presidents, and it would be suicidal to link our relationship with the United States to a candidate. I met Harris and Trump and worked well with Biden and Blinken.

She likes it Kamala Harris?
“It’s not the left wing of the Democrats, it’s the moderate wing, look at what he said about guns.”

The Trump’s victory Could it destabilize Europe?
“We’ll have to see when he becomes president. Compared to Trump ten years ago, some things have changed.

Have you forgotten the attack on Capitol Hill?
“He’s no longer president.”

It was still there.
“He was on his way out. Anyway, some of his positions have changed. On abortion, for example.”

You and Meloney will be very cautious at the UN Support for Ukraine?
“Our tax will not change, and the vote on the resolution in the EU Parliament has no legal effect. The Americans have also not given a green light to the use of Western weapons in Russia. We will send the ninth military aid package with SampT missiles, but We cannot support the Kiev Moscow bombing. And Zelensky never complained.”

The government is divided on foreign policy, evidenced by Salvini’s League, which does not support Zelensky.
“The League in the Italian Parliament did not vote against the government’s position.”

And what it says about Salvini goes to Orban, Putin’s ally?
“Foreign policy is made by the prime minister and the foreign minister. Orbán holds the rotating presidency of the EU and can’t legitimize Hungary because we don’t agree with his government’s wishes.”

Admit that you are very careful to support Kiev.
“We have not changed our position. Everyone wants peace, even America. Zelensky wants Russia’s peace conference, and we certainly couldn’t position ourselves further to the right than Zelensky. I am not a warrior.”

Do you see any glimmer of peace between now and the US election?
“Two months is a very short period of time, but I see room for some progress. Wanting peace does not mean abandoning Ukraine.”

If Trump Wins, Could Peace With Putin Come Closer?
“It won’t change things. We’ll see what Trump does. We always have to wait for the election results,” he said.
