(ANSA) – ROME, AUG 2 – Democratic Party (PD) leader Enrico Letta and former industry ministry Carlo Calenda, the head of the centrist Azione group, on Tuesday reached an agreement for a pact for the September 25 general election.
The agreement appears to boost the centre-left’s chances for the election, although the right/centre-right alliance remains the strong favourite to win it.
“We have signed an agreement that we consider very important,” Letta told a press conference.
“It’s an electoral pact within a broader agreement with other elements, which we consider fundamental to win against the right”.
