EU, von der Leyen wrote to 27 for the names of the council candidates: deadline 30 August

European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen sent a letter to the 27 member states this morning to ask them to indicate “names of candidates for the post of commissioner”. His spokesman made this clear, specifying that the deadline for the government’s response was set for 30 August.. As we know, the first choice of the Italian government is Raffaele Fitto, the current minister for European affairs with responsibility for Pnrr. A faithful Giorgia Meloni. In the last few hours the name of Elisabetta Belloni has also appeared, the current director of the Department of Defense Information (Dis) loved by Ursula von der Leyen. Belloni, a permanent candidate for all possible high public offices, deserves mention of his candidacy for the Quirinale which he later withdrew, organizing the last G7 in Puglia guaranteeing the safety of all leaders. A stage where he also managed to be noticed by the new President of the Council.

EU: Tajani, ‘Fito is better to be a council, but there are no reforms on the agenda’

Will Italy be able to get a strong commissioner in Europe despite Giorgia Meloni and Ursula von der Leyen’s encore? “I absolutely believe so.” Raffaele Fitto “will be the best candidate, he will discuss within the government, he knows European institutions very well”, so he has “what it takes to be a good commissioner and not just an intern”. Fitto “is the best, but I don’t see any reforms on the horizon – it makes it clear -, skills will be distributed I imagine, but I don’t see any reforms or problems for many”. Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs Antonio Tajani confirmed this to RTL radio.

EU: Tajani, ‘vote for Ursula? Salvini and I have different political families’

“Salvini and I come from different political families. We are for stability, we are the European People’s Party, which is the first party in Europe, a central right party that has received the President of the European Parliament, the President of the European Commission and will have the most European relations. councils. There are no reds because the left never voted for von der Leyen; There is socialist support, but a large part of the Greens did not vote for it, because they are not part of any majority.” Now the Foreign Minister Antonio Tajani, speaking to RTL, on the accusation of the leader of the League to FI having voted for Ursula von der Leyen’s encore ‘with Schlein and with the red-green fanatics’. There is no problem at all: we at Forza Italia are always correct. Since the Bucharest meeting we have always said that we will vote for von der Leyen in the name of stability. Imagine what would have happened to the markets if von der Leyen had not been elected. Read the votes, von der Leyen’s speech and his book in the contents that have brought together all the proposals of Forza Italia and the EPP about the Mediterranean, Immigration, housing, industrial policies, SMEs, for immigration, there is a big change for the Insurance Green , which is as it should be but its contents must be changed. We are against climate change: we must act ourselves but with practical solutions and this appears clearly in von der Leyen’s book”.
