Il Cavaliere does not want to be secondary in the Government of a woman

The possibility that these tensions prevent the formation of an Executive has been rejected by the third leader of the coalition, the far-right Matteo Salviniwhich has been “sure that harmony will return between Giorgia and Silvio”, but both formations have been working intensely in recent hours to overcome tensions that show the cracks in the coalition even before coming to power.
