Congratulations to all the mayors who have been elected in this round of local elections. As was the case in the first round, the centre-right has today confirmed its strength at the ballot box. Voters appreciate the work of the Government coalition and today’s result is further incentive to continue our action, to consistently and clearly follow the programme of economic, social and institutional reforms with which we gained the trust of Italians.
Tough challenges lie ahead, in a scenario that is not without critical issues, but if we remain focused on our goals, with the utmost commitment, Italy will have a long period of political stability and economic growth.
