Esprì (lit. 'Expressing') is a political party in the Italian region of Aosta Valley. The party was formed from a split in the Mouv' party, due to opposition in the direction Mouv' was going, with the latter eventually being merged into the Valdostan Union.
History
[edit]The party announced its registration as a political party on September 29, 2022, submitting the proper forms and paperwork.[1] Esprì has been vocally opposed to the "Reunion" project, which is the merger of various autonomist parties into the Valdostan Union.[2] The party was founded and led by Mauro Caniggia, a former candidate and executive of Mouv' alongside Jean-Claude Daudry, Rossana Scapoli, Emile Gorret and Roberto Luboz as a reformist autonomist party.[1] Caniggia stated he left Mouv' because the rest of the party's leadership wasn't listening to his proposals, and because he was "saddened" with the direction the party was going, and claiming the rhetoric of the party was too heightened.[3][4]
The stated goals of the party is to promote individualism, social liberalism, with a focus on increasing housing and the standard of living in the Aosta Valley.[5] The party is pro-European, and supports Aosta Valley being given it's own seat in the European Parliament instead of competing in the North-West constituency.[2][6]
Esprì supported the candidacy of Giovanni Girardini and have cooperated with his Renaissance valdotaine during the 2022 elections.[1] The party was founded as the other mainstream autonomist parties where joining together into the Aosta Valley coalition.[7] The party described themselves as "moderates" with a "moderate approach."[8]
The party's youth organization, Esprì Jeunes held its first rally on October 14, 2023.[5]
