Salvini says Ciampi was 'traitor' (2)

(ANSA) - Rome, September 16 - Northern League leader Matteo Salvini said Friday that late ex president Carlo Azeglio Ciampi was a "traitor" like his successor as head of State Giorgio Napolitano and former premiers Romano Prodi and Mario Monti. "Death is always bad news that should be faced with prayer and condolences," Salvini said. "Politically, Ciampi is one of the traitors of Italy and the Italian people, like Napolitano, Prodi and Monti.
    "He had the disaster that hit 50 million Italians on his conscience, like the others.
    "Politically speaking, he is one of the accomplices of the sell-off of Italy to the powers-that-be".
