Asian media are acting as a driving force: the continuous broadcasting of TV programs and web formats dedicated to the Dolomites has transformed the Alto Adige region into a cult destination.

Daniele Mari reported that Bergomi considered the starting lineup of Inter quite clear in case of a Champions League final, but believed that the team should continue to rotate players throughout the season, more than in the past. According to Bergomi, Pio Esposito was no longer just a young promise: he was a starter for the National team and could be considered the third starter of Inter, to the point that Lautaro could remain out. He added that the three English players had not yet contributed to the team and that Inter still relied on the players from last season, who, in his opinion, were doing very well despite being a year older. #Inter #ChampionsLeague #SerieA (translated)

This is the largest expansion of our sanctions list since Russia started the war. Europe is once again demonstrating its unity.

Patria Prima argued that a rule signed by ANRE on October 9 would allow energy suppliers, starting in 2027, to dismiss complaints if they believe they contain inappropriate language or do not sufficiently describe the situation. The author stated that the rule does not define these terms and leaves the decision to the discretion of the complained firm. As examples, Patria Prima mentioned clients who contest a much larger bill or do not know how to explain why it seems incorrect to them. In the author's opinion, their complaints could be dismissed without the supplier checking the issue. Patria Prima also said that ANRE applies a similar rule to itself from 2024, which would allow the institution to ignore complaints about suppliers. The author claimed that the provision did not appear in the draft submitted for public debate and was introduced in the final form without ANRE specifying who requested it and why. Patria Prima stated that it had filed a complaint with ANRE and requested the cancellation of the rule, and if it is not withdrawn within 30 days, it will go to court. It also urged the public to share the information. #energie #ANRE #facturi (translated)

"The guarantees on Renzi must come from you since you consider him essential for the alliance." Despite yet another warning sent by Giuseppe Conte to their secretary: "The guarantees on Renzi must come from you since you consider him essential for the alliance." So it is: yesterday it was up to Conte to specify the type of protections expected: not "vetoes" but "political safeguards," so that a potential ally, who might decide to change position, is not "in a position to cause harm." #Politica #Elezioni2026 #Allanza (translated)
