The anti-establishment 5-Star
Movement (M5S) will talk to its government partner, the
anti-migrant Euroskeptic League party, if a cost/benefit
analysis on the high-speed rail (TAV) line between Turin and
Lyon turns out negative as expected at the end of the month, M5S
Transport Minister Danilo Toninelli said Wednesday.
The M5S is against continuing the project while the League
wants to see it finished and League leader Matteo Salvini has
proposed a referendum if the analysis comes out against the
line.
If it is indeed negative, Toninelli said "I will talk about
it with France, the EU Commission and we will talk inside
government, without any prejudice".
He said "the M5S has always been against a project that is a
waste of public money".
