Deputy Premier and League leader
Matteo Salvini on Tuesday scoffed at the idea of a "light"
version of the controversial TAV high-speed rail line between
Turin and Lyon, which would not go through mountains north of
Turin but over them.
"The 'light' TAV? Either a train passes under the mountain or
not".
"Tertium non datur.
"I like trains that run.
"There is an ongoing project, I hope yesterday's lesson the
Olympics has served for something."
The League's government partner, the 5-Star Movement (M5S),
has blocked the TAV citing costs but Salvini is determined to
push it through.
