- Venetian Agreement
Venetian Agreement ("Intesa Veneta", IV) is a centrist social-democratic Italian political party active in
Veneto .It emerged in 2006 as a regional split from the
Italian Democratic Socialists and it is led byCarlo Covi , regional deputy, andMonica Balbinot , minister of Culture ofPadova . The party is particularly strong in the Municipal Council of Padova: three councillors of out the seven elected by the Socialists switched to the new party. In Padua it supports the municipal government led byFlavio Zanonato (Democratic Party), but is increasingly close to the centre-right on many issues.On
8 October 2008 IV signed a pact of coalition withNorth-East Project andLiga Veneta Repubblica for the future municipal, provincial and regional elections "in order to provide an adequate representation to the Venetian people, in line with what happens inEurope , fromScotland toCatalonia , fromWales toBrittany , where federalist, autonomist and independentist parties, who resopond uniquely to their territory, see their popular support increasing."
