(ANSA) - ROME, MAY 3 - Deputy Premier, Foreign Minister and
centre-right post Berlusconi Forza Italia party leader Antonio
Tajani said Friday there was "no embarrassment" on the
government's part amid opposition calls for Premier Giorgia
Meloni to force Tourism Minister Daniela Santanchè to quit after
a Milan prosecutor asked for her to be sent to trial for alleged
fraud on social security agency INPS COVID redundancy funds for
her former Visibilia publishing empire.
"The oppositions ask for resignations every two minutes," said
Tajani.
"There is a request (for indictment), and when there is a
decision we'll talk about it," he said after Santanchè, who
survived a no-confidence vote in the case, said she would resign
if indicted. (ANSA).
