Biography

Cosolini began his career in the 1980s as provincial secretary, and then regional secretary, of the National Confederation of Crafts and Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises.[1] In 2003, with the election of Riccardo Illy as President of Friuli-Venezia Giulia, Cosolini is appointed Regional Councilor for Labor, Education, Universities and Research.[2]

After winning the centre-left primaries for the candidacy for the office of mayor of Trieste,[3] Cosolini is elected mayor in May 2011.[4] In 2016, Cosolini tries to achieve the reconfirmation, but he is defeated by his predecessor and centre-right candidate Roberto Dipiazza.[5]
