Roberto Vannacci frames Futuro Nazionale as independent force for change in Italy

Roberto Vannacci, leader of the newly founded party Futuro Nazionale, told reporters in Rome that he represents the hope of the roughly 100,000 members who joined his movement and of Italians who want a break from the current political establishment. He criticised the policies of the Draghi agenda, the European Commission under Ursula von der Leyen, the Green Deal and international finance, saying they have left Italy in a weakened position.

Vannacci said the party is ready for the April 2027 elections, will support Italy’s participation in the EU and NATO but only on terms that benefit the nation, rejecting directives that make Italy “subordinate.” He called for peace in the Russia‑Ukraine conflict, describing it as counter‑productive for Italy, and advocated a policy of “remigrazione,” urging bilateral agreements to return illegal migrants to their countries of origin as a human right under Article 13 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. He also stressed that Futuro Nazionale will not trigger a collapse of the centre‑right bloc and dismissed fellow politician Carlo Calenda as “not an interlocutor.”
