terrible article, to be expected from the independent. two sentences about why people are against it and then the rest of the article is just copy and pasted from matteo fucking salvini’s press conference about it
this sentence made me laugh tho:
The project could also support Italy’s commitment to raise defense spending to 5% of GDP targeted by NATO, as the government has indicated it would classify the bridge as defense-related.
