Turin city council should heal
splits over the city's possible bid for the 2026 Winter
Olympics, Piedmont Governor Sergio Chiamparino said Tuesday. He
said that he hoped the whole council would "support the will" of
Mayor Chiara Appendino on Wednesday.
Appendino has said the city would like to voice an interest
in hosting the games, before making a possible bid.
He voiced the hope that the city council "will heal the
laceration that has not benefited the overall consideration of
the city".
Turin is run by the anti-establishment 5-Star Movement, whose
Rome administration in 2016 scotched the Italian capital's bid
for the 2024 summer games.
