Ventotene, a summit that looks like a game of cards – The Daily

Pasquale Felix

The summit of the Merkel with our Renzi and the French leader Hollande has every appearance of being a game tressette with the dead. In the game that everyone knows the dead man has no secrets, while the other three have hole cards. However, playing in pairs, so one is playmate with the dead.

It’s Angela Merkel companion of the dead? Or is Francoise Hollande? Or even our Matteo Renzi? To begin with, we have to give a name to the dead, and this can only be Altiero Spinelli , the founding father of Europe, that there Ventotene lies forever. Then mate the dead can not be other than a convinced European. Merkel believes Europe, there is no doubt about that, but he believes a lot more to his country, and banks in his country, even on this there is no doubt. Deutschland über alles , nothing has changed. Hollande also believes otherwise would not come to the summit. But he believes above all in the grandeur French and in its interventionism, with the power and agility of its Mirage: it has already demonstrated in Libya and on the Syrian front. Remains Matteo Renzi, who is also pro-European as the others, he believe in a united Europe : but a different, more flexible and more cohesive, closer to the Ventotene Manifesto and further away from the claims and the self-interest of local small parties such as the exploitation of those who want to bring back to Europe the winds of an anachronistic cold war.

Who plays with the dead, tressette, usually he has an advantage . If he is favored by the cards with the accuse of some buongioco, better yet.
