Democratic Party (PD) leader
Matteo Renzi said Monday that he would not disavow what has been
been achieved by his 2014-2016 administration and the current
PD-led government of Premier Paolo Gentiloni.
"To those who say that we have to wipe out the past to think
about the future, I say that we must strongly lay claim to what
we have done," Renzi told a crunch party meeting.
"Naturally, there were limits and difficulties, but the
country has improved in recent years.
"We closed the gap, we got the country going again and we
still have lots to do.
"Those who say we must disavow what has been done are not
aware of where we were three years ago".
