League leader Matteo Salvini told a
rally of his Identity and Freedom (ID) European Parliament
caucus in Florence including French, Dutch and German rightwing
parties Sunday that it was not a political alliance as much as a
friendship.
"Today there is not a political and party alliance but a feeling
of friendship: on this stage there have been leaders who, like
in a love and professional story, experience ups and downs. It
has happened in France, in the Netherlands, in Italy," he said
at the 'Free Europe' event..
"But Identity and Democracy is there and will be decisive in
Europe because no one has ever abandoned a friend momentarily in
difficulty, it is too easy to ally oneself only with those who
win", said Salvini, closing the convention of the sovereignists
and allied parties of the League in Europe.
"The League is there, it is winning and it will win, in the face
of those who have wished us the end more than once", he said.
