Vannacci signals possible alliance with Italy’s centre-right
Roberto Vannacci says Futuro Nazionale is open to a centre-right alliance in Italy, but only on terms that fit the party’s priorities.
He said he would not accept choices he believes are against Italians’ interests.
Vannacci criticised Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni’s government, calling it too moderate and questioning whether it serves the public.
He spoke at an agriculture event organised by his party in Trecenta, in the province of Rovigo.
He blamed European and national policies for farmers’ crisis and opposed cuts to the EU’s Common Agricultural Policy.
The party leader also said Futuro Nazionale could have more members than any other party in Italy, though he gave no figures.
Roberto Vannacci signalled that his party, Futuro Nazionale, could ally with Italy’s centre-right.
He said the party was willing to discuss an alliance but would not make choices against the interests of Italians.
Vannacci criticised Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni’s government, calling it an “watered-down” right-wing government and questioning whether it had acted in Italians’ interests.
He said Futuro Nazionale’s programme was 82% similar to the programme of Meloni’s Brothers of Italy party in 2018.
Vannacci spoke at an agriculture festival organised by his party in Trecenta, in the province of Rovigo.

What people are saying
Nobody will make me take choices that are not in the interests of Italians.
How is it that Prime Minister Meloni stubbornly wants the left to win?
This is a watered-down right-wing government.
