The Presidency yesterday shared a lengthy explanation of the reasons that had prompted the President to sign the decree for partial elections in 6 Municipalities.
In fact, the "President's" reasoning is a copy of the report accompanying the Council of Ministers' Decision.
There is nothing wrong with a legal interpretation by the Prime Minister's team being embraced by the President and used as an explanation for the decree signed by him himself.
The problem arises when the President appears to have simply copied and not made that interpretation his own.
In a case like this, and the debate over the validity of a decree like this, it would have been appropriate for the President to be able to explain the decree himself and his reasoning for it, without having to share heated statements with the media.
In 2018, Mattarella said "no" to the mandate given to Paolo Savona in the new government that emerged from the elections.
In the words that the president addressed to the people, he showed Italy the danger of appointing an anti-euro person as a minister.
President Mattarella chose not to issue press releases.
He came out himself and read and explained to the people the motives and reasons for his decision.
The case was unprecedented for President Mattarella, he came out himself and spoke to the people.
Even Veliaj's case is unprecedented, in this world of ours, which is certainly smaller than the world where Mattarella presides.
But this does not justify our President being reduced even more than the world where the Presidency hides behind texts that no one believes he has the guts to write himself.
At least show that after reading them, you understand them and can reproduce them.
