Mayor Dario Iaia urges unity for Mediterranean Games in Taranto

Mayor Dario Iaia, a deputy for Fratelli d'Italia, called for an end to political polemics and for collaborative effort ahead of the upcoming Mediterranean Games in Taranto. He stressed that responsibility, institutional cooperation and full commitment from all parties are essential to present the city positively to the Mediterranean region and the world. Iaia warned that recent contentious statements from municipal officials have worsened the political climate and urged officials to abandon provocative attitudes and focus on constructive actions for the city's success.

The appeal emphasizes that the Games should be an occasion for civic pride and revitalisation rather than a platform for ongoing political conflict.
