Italian Deputy Prime Minister, Matteo Salvini visited Romanian Embassy from Rome
Matteo Salvini has change his attitude regarding romanian people. Until now, he saw our country as a source of slaves or thieves. Surprisingly, now he considers the romanian citizens brothers and sisters of italian citizens. Salvini made those statements while he visited Romanian Embassy from Rome, during an event linked to Romania’s presidency of EU’s Council. His visit was a surprise for everyone and was unnanounced.
Matteo Salvini: You already are 1,2 million, you are our brothers and sisters, italian people. I have been to Romania to meet, to listen and to receive the requests of the 20.000 italian companies which moved there. It’s obvious that presidency attends especially economic issues, comercial agreements and antiterorism, but something is wrong and we have to try to fix it. I wish romanian presidency can ease this „back to basic” process and to look forward, in the future, because economy, social wellness and our appearance in other areas of world are essential./aboboc
