Political party in Italy
Civic Network (Rete Civica , RC ) is a left-wing political party active in Aosta Valley , Italy .
The party was formed in January 2019 upon the break-up of Civic Commitment (IC), an alike grouping which had obtained 7.5% of the vote and three regional councillors.[ 3] Two of them, Alberto Bertin (a former member of Autonomy Liberty Participation Ecology )[ 4] and Chiara Minelli , departed from IC and launched RC.[ 5]
In June 2019, when the regional government led by Antonio Fosson of For Our Valley was in crisis,[ 6] [ 7] RC became part of the governing majority.[ 8] [ 9]
In the 2020 regional election , the RC was part of a centre-left joint list, named Progressive Civic Project (PCP), comprising the Democratic Party (PD) and Green Europe (EV). The list obtained 15.7% of the vote and 7 seats, two of which for RC. After the election, a regionalist/centre-left government, composed of the Valdostan Union , the Valdostan Alliance , Edelweiss , Mouv' , the PD and RC. Bertin was elected President of the Regional Council, while Minelli was appointed regional minister of the environment, transports and sustainable mobility.[ 10] [ 11] [ 12] [ 13] [ 14]
Within a year, the RC-led PCP broke with the government and the PD: five councillors, including Bertin, sided with the PD and formed a new group named also "Progressive Federalists" in October 2021,[ 15] [ 16] [ 17] while the remaining two, Erika Guichardaz and Minelli, who had resigned from regional minister in May,[ 18] re-organised the PCP as the union of three groups — RC, EV and Democratic Area–Autonomist Left (AD–GA) —, and re-branded it as a left-wing opposition to the regionalist/centre-left government.[ 19] Guichardaz was affiliated with AD–GA.[ 20]
In the general election , RC and PCP supported Guichardaz to the Chamber and Daria Pulz to the Senate, along with the Five Star Movement , AD–GA, Environment Rights Equality (ADU; another splitter of Civic Commitment) and Italian Left (SI),[ 21] [ 22] the latter two already united by a federative pact.[ 23] Guichardaz and Pulz obtained 10.9% and 10.0% of the vote, respectively. In the European Parliament election , RC ran with Greens and Left Alliance , SI, EV and ADU belong to.[ 24]
