“We are truly honored to host this sporting event – adds Toti – in one of the pearls of our Riviera, where athletes and teams from all over the world have arrived in this week of great sport, competition but also fun and of quality tourism. It is a beautiful synthesis of our traditions turned towards the future, of the sporting competition but also of the development of the territory. I thank Prince Albert of Monaco for his presence, who is once again a friend of our region and an important partner for many initiatives, just think of the inauguration a few weeks ago of the new port of Ventimiglia built by the Monegasque capitals. My hope – continues the President of the Region – is that this day of sport and this beautiful week in Alassio will bring good luck for a year where we are finally leaving behind the difficulties that we have experienced and will start living again, in particular the fact of being able to stay together today in a gym, something that was not easy until a few weeks ago. The fact that all this is happening the day after the introduction of the green pass in the workplace – he concludes – when it looked like the country was going to explode when in the end everything went very well , tells us that we have taken the right path “.
