Premier Giorgia Meloni expressed
satisfaction on Monday as she inaugurated one of the flagship
projects for the 2025 Jubilee of the Catholic Church, the
renovation and pedestrianization of Piazza Pia, a square by the
River Tiber in front the Mausoleum of Hadrian and a stone's
thrown from St Peter's Square.
"If we are able to inaugurate this project today, it is in part
thanks to the method that this government has used from the very
beginning, setting up a taskforce at premier's office with all
the entities involved, a body capable of tackling obstacles and
difficulties in real time," Meloni said.
She added that the "Jubilee method reminds us that things in
Italy can be done well and quickly, that the public
administration can surprise us when it wants to"
Deputy Premier and Transport and Infrastructure Minister Matteo
Salvini was pleased too.
"I have seen Italian and foreign young people working together
here - that's the beauty of true integration," League leader
Salvini said.
"It is a response to those who would like nothing to be done in
Italy.
"It is an example of how, if social, political and trade union
forces row in the same direction, Italy is second to no one.
"We have the best workers and engineers.
"The important thing is that there is no one seeking to stop the
future.
"My thoughts go out to those fathers and mothers, who in
(safety) helmets and vests, are working to make the country more
beautiful and faster".
