The meeting, conducted by the President of the MPC, Cinzia Colman, began with congratulations to Brezzo on his recent re-election and gratitude for the presence of journalists and the Monaco press. Brezzo emphasized the importance of a free and independent press. Colman raised the issue of the lack of professional recognition for journalists in Monaco, challenging the notion of prioritizing Monegasque professionals without professional recognition. The conversation also touched on current topics such as the merger between TVMonaco and Monaco Info, the proposed abortion law, divorce reform, and housing issues in Monaco. Brezzo expressed the need for urgent updates to divorce legislation and the replacement of the outdated concept of “head of family.” On infrastructure projects, Brezzo expects answers from the government by spring.
