09 October 2019 "In these days on the pages of the newspapers we continue to read multiple reconstructions and backstage involving the figure of the Prime Minister, Giuseppe Conte, and our intelligence. These are reconstructions in most cases without foundation, such as lastly, the one that appeared today on the 'Messaggero' according to which Palazzo Chigi would have informed the Quirinale about the alleged requests received by Italy from the US Administration on the Russiagate case ".

It is learned from sources in Palazzo Chigi.

"Or like that - continues the same sources of Palazzo Chigi - that has always appeared today on 'Repubblica', in which presumptive quotation marks on the figure of the director of Dis Gennaro Vecchione, never pronounced, are attributed to the President of the Council, and in which we speak of phantom secret meetings between Conte and Vecchione in Chigi, a circumstance, the latter, that borders on the ridiculous, in view of the fact that periodically the Prime Minister receives the director of the Dis. Every day the Presidency of the Council would be forced to deny numerous articles which - through imaginative and often unverified reconstructions - they convey unfounded, even contradictory news with respect to those published the previous day, feeding around this affair a media clamor that generates misinformation and discredits our institutions, and therefore Palazzo Chigi does not intend to indulge " .

"The prime minister has already expressed on several occasions his willingness to report to Copasir, in the times that the parliamentary committee deems appropriate. On that occasion the prime minister, with the utmost transparency, will inform the Copasir, and only then the organs information and public opinion, "the sources conclude.
