Sangiuliano Confirms Run as Fratelli d'Italia Lead Candidate in Campania

The former culture minister returns to politics after the Boccia affair, with an administrative probe by the Corte dei conti still open.

Overview

  • He announced the candidacy in an interview with Corriere della Sera, saying he accepted the party’s request to head the list for the regional council.
  • The Campania regional elections are scheduled for 23–24 November.
  • Sangiuliano said he discussed the move with Giovanni Donzelli, Ignazio La Russa, Arianna Meloni, and center-right gubernatorial candidate Edmondo Cirielli.
  • Posters, a campaign event flyer in Palma Campania, and reports of a newly assembled staff had signaled his entry before the official confirmation.
  • A criminal inquiry tied to the Boccia affair was archived, while the Corte dei conti review continues, and if elected he would take leave from his current Rai correspondent role in Paris.
