txt: Coca- Cola not ‘buying’ Venice – ANSA
Coca-Cola is not ”buying” Venice, its city council said Monday, reacting to polemics over a planned million-dollar partnership between the drinks giant and the lagoon city.
Italian daily La Stampa reported Monday that the city was ”selling itself” to Coca-Cola in a 2.1 million-dollar deal that will involve ”vending machines in every corner of the city”, including St Mark’s Square, where tourists are forbidden from picnicking under strict council rules on urban decorum.
