		</div><p>The Austrian branch of McDonald’s says it will paste over a slogan that drew the ire of Italian interior minister Matteo Salvini on posters in an Italy-themed ad campaign.</p>
<p>McDonald’s put up posters with the slogan “Fuer echte Mampfiosi,” or “for real Mampfiosi” – the latter apparently a play on the German “mampf,” meaning “chow”, and mafiosi.</p>
<p>Mr Salvini on Sunday tweeted a picture of a billboard with the comment: <em>“Italians all Mafiosi? How sad.”</em></p>
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="550" data-dnt="true">
<p lang="it" dir="ltr">Panino “Estate italiana” in Germania: “Per veri MAFIOSI” (gioco di parole con “mampfen” = sbafare&#8230;). <br />Italiani tutti mafiosi? Che tristezza&#8230; Abbiamo ritrovato orgoglio e dignità, indietro non si torna! ðð®ð¹ <a href="https://t.co/UiTvFgxA4g">pic.twitter.com/UiTvFgxA4g</a></p>

<p>The company’s Austrian branch said Tuesday the offending slogan will be pasted over with the words “Fuer echte Amici” (“for real friends”) in the coming days.</p>
<p>Marketing director Joerg Pizzera said that “of course it wasn’t our intention to insult Italians in any way and we apologise to all those who feel insulted”.</p>
