The staff of Foreign Minister and
former 5-Star Movmeent (M5S) leader Luigi Di Maio on Thursday
"categorically" denied media claims that in his resignation
speech in Rome Wednesday he had attacked M5S bigwig Alessandro
Di Battista, whom he considers a "friend".
In the speech quitting as M5S leader Di Maio said he had been
stabbed in the back by some within the movement.
Di Battista, hitherto the party's unofficial No.2 despite
currently not being in parliament, has recently been critical of
some of Di Maio's actions.
