Starting from the Open Arms affair, Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte addressed critical words to Deputy Prime Minister Matteo Salvini through an open letter published on social networks. On Open Arms by Minister Matteo Salvini there was "a clear example of unfair collaboration, yet another to tell the truth, which I cannot accept". Thus the premier Giuseppe Conte. "We must all work to give full dignity to the institutions we represent, in the sign of loyal cooperation. You have a long political career behind you. Many associate it with power. I associate it with an enormous responsibility," writes Conte. "Your political enthusiasm and the anxiety to communicate have often led you to operate 'institutional gaps', which at times have become real 'institutional tears'" - Conte writes - "For these reasons I found myself forced to intervene various Sometimes - mostly I did it privately - not because of the anxiety of politically opposing your initiatives, but because of the need to demand the application of the principle of 'loyal cooperation', which is fundamental for the proper functioning of public institutions ", adds Conte.
