Anti-establishment 5-Star Movement
(M5S) Rome mayoral candidate Virginia Raggi on Wednesday denied
she would be "remote-controlled" by M5S founder Beppe Grillo if
she wins the June 5 elections.
"I want to reassure voters: I will be mayor and I will
respond to the citizens...Grillo will remain the guarantor of
our principles but I'll be the mayor"," she told an ANSA forum.
"Our programme was written with the citizens and for that
reason too I will respond to the citizens," she stressed.
Raggi is the frontrunner in the race.
