Italy’s deputy prime minister has described the opening of the Olympics as wretched

Italian Deputy Prime Minister and Infrastructure Minister Matteo Salvini assessed the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games in Paris.

 

“To open the Games by offending billions of Christians was a truly nasty start, dear Frenchmen. What wretchedness,” Salvini wrote.

On 26 July, for the first time in history, the opening ceremony took place in a city rather than a stadium. The national teams paraded down the Seine River in boats.

In social networks, many were left dissatisfied with the fact that at the event transvestite artists made a parody of Da Vinci’s “The Last Supper”.
