(ANSA) - Fiuggi, September 21 - European Parliament President Antonio Tajani said Friday alt-right strategist and former Trump advisor Steve Bannon should "go home" if he thinks he can "destroy Europe".
    "I am a European nationalist" said the EP chief.
    "When a gentleman like Steve Bannon arrives, to tell us what we must do to destroy Europe, then I say; 'dear Mr Bannon go home, if you want to be a tourist, be a tourist, it's better for you to keep quiet'." Earlier the secretary-general of the European People's Party caucus, Antonio Lopez Isturiz, told the conference organised by Tajani in Fiuggi that meetings between Bannon and Eurskpetic League leader Matteo Salvini are "extremely serious".
    "Steve Bannon is a dangerous extremist, who even Trump had to get rid of because of how unpresentable he was. I read that he is meeting with Matteo Salvini: it is extremely serious news", said Lopez Isturiz.
    "I find unacceptable that this disgraced ideologue is thinking of destroying the European project: we are the founders of a united Europe and we will never accept this cheap nationalism".
