Italian Deputy Prime Minister Matteo Salvini says that he’s against nationalizing the country’s motorways following the Genoa bridge disaster.

Salvini, who also serves as interior minister, rejected calls to bring Italy’s vast network of privately managed toll roads and bridges under government control, amid the fallout from the Aug. 14 Morandi viaduct collapse that killed 43 people.
