“If the Italians decide to elect Giorgia Meloni, Ursula von der Leyen will have to respect this vote without threat”, said Saturday, September 24 on franceinfo Julien Odoul, deputy National Rally of Yonne, member of the Committee for Cultural Affairs and Education. In Italy, the far-right candidate Giorgia Meloni is on track to win the legislative elections to be held this Sunday.
When Ursula von der Leyen, the President of the European Commission, “threatens the Italians depending on tomorrow’s vote by saying that if Mrs. Meloni’s party wins, she has pressure tools, as was the case for Poland and Hungary, that’s a foreign interference which is not denounced by macronie.
“It’s unbearable to have this kind of pressure, of violence, vis-à-vis a sovereign people who will vote tomorrow.”

League leader Matteo Salvini asked “apology or resignation” by Ursula von der Leyen. “He is right, Madame von der Leyen is not elected by any people, she has no democratic legitimacy. So she should respect the vote of the sovereign people. If the Italians decide to elect Giorgia Meloni, she will have to respect this vote without threat”, insisted Julien Odoul.
Deputy of the National Rally of Yonne “welcomes the breakthrough of the patriots in Italy and hopes that this wind of freedom will make it possible to roll back the disastrous orientations of the European Union which imposes delusional policies on the people.” This breakthrough of the extreme right is due to the “peoples” who “wake up”. “They want a lot more nations, a lot less immigration and regain control over their destiny. We saw it in Sweden with a rather extraordinary result from a patriotic coalition, we will see it I hope tomorrow evening in Italy “, he adds.
In mid-September, for the first time a bloc bringing together the right and the extreme right won the general elections in Sweden, ousting the left in power for eight years.
