The centre right will run
together in all upcoming electoral contests starting with
regional elections in Piemonte, Abruzzo, Basilicata and Sardinia
and will field a single candidate representing the alliance, a
joint statement said after a summit Thursday.
Brothers of Italy (FdI) leader Giorgia Meloni said League
leader Matteo Salvini had "clarified that the League is anchored
to the centre-right", which also includes Silvio Berlusconi's
Forza Italia (FI) party.
"The centre right is victorious in Italy, and today's meeting
was very positive," she said.
She said the League was "realising that it is difficult to
find an agreement with the (anti-establishment) 5-Star Movement,
(M5S) which is structurally on the Left".
The League is in national government with the M5S.
