Deputy Premier and Transport Minister
Matteo Salvini said Wednesday that the stare of Italy's railways
was down to previous governments after coming under fire over a
recent wave of delays, cancellations and disruption for
passengers.
"We have launched a 100-billion-euro investment plan for railway
infrastructure, with over 1,200 construction sites already
active to make up for decades of delays on the railways of this
country and recover the damage of the misgovernment of the
Left," Salvini said via X.
He hit back at ex-premier Matteo Renzi, leader of the centrist,
opposition Italia Viva party, who has criticized his handling of
the nation's railways.
"Wasn't be meant to retire from politics?," Salvini said.
