M5S, Conte “No risk of split, Grillo make a foundation”

ROME (ITALPRESS) – “I would say there is no risk of a split. The situation is quite obvious, there is a guarantor who does not recognize the path of the community of members: today this path is disallowed by the guarantor himself, because our community wanted to realize the principle of participatory and deliberative democracy.” Thus M5S President Giuseppe Conte, a guest on SkyTg24. “We challenged ourselves, setting aside as a leadership group and letting the grassroots work. They are the ones who decided to eliminate the figure of the guarantor and adopt a guarantee committee: I have no fears about the new vote, because I was convinced by the community to follow an intense and participatory political path,” he added. “I am here to lead the 5 Star Movement because it was Grillo who begged me and I took 2-3 months to decide: his idea was to put someone to buffer the crisis of consensus. When the Movement was born it was not a project intended to govern the country, but limited to municipalities: the success went beyond their forecasts. If Grillo wants a new political initiative, make a family succession foundation,” Conte concluded.
