As long as there isn't something serious on the table there's no point in talking to her. I don't want to upset an already shaken person. But these things aren't built that way. I spoke to Schlein only once and she called me to find out about my daughter. But he didn't mention the idea of ​​nominating her to me for the Europeans. Then I never heard from her again. The prime minister Melons however he never called me, I never had any direct contact with Palazzo Chigi. President Mattarellainstead – concludes Salis – it was reactive.
