"Manipulating a photo to show a person in more revealing clothing than reality is disgraceful. On this occasion, National Future has disgracefully attacked Matilde Siracusano, a serious and prepared colleague who stands by me at the ministry every day, to whom I send a strong hug. The altered photo speaks for itself and qualifies those who produced and published it." The minister for Relations with Parliament, Luca Ciriani, of Brothers of Italy, also commented on the case: "Manipulating a photo to show a person in more revealing clothing than reality is disgraceful.
