Musumeci applauds Castelli, 'he will complete an epochal and complex undertaking'

"What has been done here in Central Italy, in terms of contamination and prevention measures, has not been done in any other construction site and much of this rigor was often born with the same request from Commissioner Castelli". This was said by the Minister of Civil Protection Nello Musumeci who concluded his speech in Arquata del Tronto (Ascoli Piceno) in the meeting promoted by the four Anci affected by the earthquake (Marche, Lazio, Abruzzo and Umbria.

The minister addressed the reconstruction commissioner Castelli directly at the center of political controversy following the investigations by the Guardia di Finanza into mafia infiltration in the reconstruction after the 2016 earthquake: "dear Guido, you interpret and represent each of us in this difficult and complex phase, for which I am convinced you will be able to complete the epochal undertaking of restoring hope and certainty to thousands of people who lost it due to the earthquake". "I have full confidence in his abilities and in the work of the commissioner structure" he added, recalling that "what has been done here in Central Italy, in terms of contamination and prevention measures, has not been done in any other construction site...".

In reiterating his trust in the judiciary that is investigating, Musumeci sent a clear message: "from this point of view, whoever should know should know that we are not afraid of contamination here. We look forward with our history and our righteousness: we can also make mistakes, but we are aware that we can look everyone in the eye".
