"There is no economic development without gas, resources and factories." This was stated by the former Minister of Economic Development Carlo Calenda, now leader of Azione, who today visited the plants of Sider Alloys and Eurallumina in the industrial area of Portovesme, in Sulcis. He had already been to the former Alcoa during his leadership at Mise.

«Seeing the workers with whom we had put the situation back together and seeing the aluminum smelting was a moving moment for me», he recalls, «And yet today I come to this site, the only one left where primary aluminum is produced, in a totally different context, surreal, shameful and ignoble».

Then the attack on the president of the Region: «This is a pole kept in perfect order by the workers and by the owners», underlined Calenda, «with a 300 million development project to transform it entirely to gas, and yet the president Solinas is assumed alone the responsibility of blocking the arrival of a regasification ship which would lead to the industrial rebirth of this territory. He is doing it for obscure reasons but in the meantime he is putting at risk not only jobs, but an entire strategic Italian sector: with his individual behavior he is hindering all of this ».

The Senator of the Third Pole therefore appeals to all political forces to find a solution to the many disputes in Sulcis, announcing his direct intervention with Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni. "We are fighting not to keep a company, but to send it away, it is an Italian paradox".
