Montesilvano (Pescara), Sept. 12 (LaPresse) – “I hope the center-right will converge on a choice that can bring Milanese residents what has been lacking in recent years.” Matteo Perego said this in Montesilvano (Pescara) for Azzurra libertà, the Forza Italia youth festival, in his first official appearance after being endorsed by FI national secretary Antonio Tajani as the mayoral candidate for Milan. “Confidence in the administration, a city that looks ahead, that grows, that develops, that sees security as a fundamental priority that has been abandoned in recent years – this is Perego’s objective – I would like all Milanese residents to be able to leave their homes peacefully in the evening, without being afraid of being robbed, without being afraid of violence. And today, unfortunately, there is this widespread perception of insecurity. And then we want to bridge the gap between the city center and the outskirts. The whole city must grow and then there must be public decorum. Public decorum, green spaces are fundamental. We want families to be able to spend time in Milan’s parks, which should be maintained, not abandoned as they are today,” he added. “This is an administration that has spent many years living only on empty slogans, without doing anything concrete for Milanese residents. I believe Milanese residents have realized this. That is why we are ready for a solid, strong alternative together with our friends and allies in the center-right, to put Milan back at the center, not only of Italy, but of Europe. The great European capital. One of the first things I would like to do is introduce a special law for Milan. With special status, in order to give it the powers that a great metropolis like Milan deserves. It is a city that must attract even more young people, a city that must look to the future, in a society that is changing without leaving anyone behind. This must be our most important message. And we can do it because there are many hidden energies in Milan that need to emerge, and I believe they only need to be called upon to respond to our desire to involve civil society in a transformation of the city that is essential. Years of neglect are being felt, and Milan does not deserve it. And I say this as someone who has been Milanese since the 1500s, my family has lived in Milan, so we know the city quite well, 15 generations,” he concluded. “So there is a lot to do, we are ready, the worksite is open. We will now see what the choice will be; I am sure it will certainly be in the interests of Milanese residents on the part of our great center-right group. And we are also obviously interested in opening up, because this city must involve the best energies.”
