“My best wishes go to all the mayors elected following the first round of local elections. The centre-right has confirmed its strength as a governing coalition, and the value of stability and being clear with Italians.
We are focused on our objectives, growth figures are confirming the concreteness of our economic policy, household and business confidence is growing and Italy is playing a leading role on the international stage.
The local election result is a further boost to the Government’s actions, with the consensus among voters spurring us on to speed up implementation of the programme of economic, social and institutional reforms”.
