BOLZANO. “It’s not like every time there is a market on apples and pears”: with a joke the president of the Province of Bolzano, Arno Kompatscherdetaches the agreement with the government on the changes to the statute of autonomy of Trentino Alto Adige from the possible vote of the SVP parliamentarians for the election of Francesco Saverio Marini to the Constitutional Court.

“There is already a clear commitment from the government on the restoration of autonomist competences – adds Kompatscher – and, therefore, we consider this something already agreed upon”. Furthermore, the South Tyrolean president underlines that, tomorrow, together with his Trentino colleague, Maurizio Fugattiwill meet the prime minister, Giorgia Meloni“as regards today’s vote it would seem that the center right has indicated that it will vote blank and, therefore, we will see what happens”.

The objective of tomorrow’s meeting, Kompatscher clarifies, is “to understand what the timing will be”, in particular when there will be a response on the proposals made by the Province which go beyond the restoration of competences and when everything will reach the council of ministers.

“We have written in the provincial government program that we will take the opportunity to make further proposals, which go beyond the restoration and President Meloni has reserved the right to evaluate this – explains the South Tyrolean president – Therefore it would not be a violation of the agreements or a failure to fulfill if there was no total agreement on the additional part. Instead, restoration is something we are counting on.” “Naturally the assessments on what constitutes restoration and what constitutes already expansion may be conflicting – concludes Kompatscher – but we must consider that we cannot legally return to the identical situation of that time, because, in the meantime, the world has changed. We must arrive at a similar situation regarding standards”.

In Rome, meanwhile, the president of the Volkspartei is a member of parliament Dieter Steger and the senator Meinhard Durnwalder the senator and president of the Group for autonomies are possibilists Julia Unterberger however, she is very skeptical. If anything, the SVP’s numerically precious yes should be made to depend on “a strong and concrete commitment from the government” for the autonomy reform, promised by Prime Minister Meloni on the occasion of her inauguration. “We have so far respected all the commitments made”, reiterates Unterberger who is not in Rome today.
