response but we are there, we'll keep seeking a space for joint
work" she told In Mezz'ora on Raitre.
"I turned to Meloni to say, at least on this let's leave the
political clash to one side and let's try to bring the country

patriarchal culture you have to start with education for respect
and affectivity in the schools. I asked Meloni to approve a law
together". (ANSA).
