He supports sanctions against Russia, and therefore not primarily beneficial to the parties supporting Putin. If Italians will vote against the reform, the government will be forced to resign. “I know that just two parties are unable to agree on a date. Now, the ongoing campaign for a referendum, and it is quite logical that the Prime Minister Renzi is daily busy with this subject,” shows understanding of the situation, the mayor of Verona, Flavio Tosi.
