Does Draghi crown Cazzullo director of Corriere della Sera with Dagospia’s approval?
Who was there and what was said at the event (according to Corriere della sera) by Cazzullo and Draghi. Facts, words, names and a naughty question from the Daily Fact
A presentation of the book by the Corriere della Sera signature, Aldo Cazzullo, is "an event" for the Corriere della Sera . But perhaps not only because Cazzullo interviewed the former Prime Minister, Mario Draghi. But also because the public interview took place on the altar of the church of Saint Ignatius of Loyola in Rome, once the chapel of the Roman College of the Jesuit Fathers. A choice that has aroused wonder, surprise, astonishment and even some criticism on social media.
Who was at the event? Sitting on the benches Carlo Calenda, Lorenzo Guerini, the publisher Urbano Cairo with the director of La7 Andrea Salerno, Giampiero Mughini, Roberto D'Agostino, wrote the Corriere della sera . The photos chosen by the newspaper directed by Luciano Fontana for the article on the event are splendid and significant. Start Magazine highlighted a few days ago how the founder and director of Dagospia , Roberto D'Agostino, invoked the Troika for Italy .
But what did Draghi say? Here are some of the concepts expressed by the former president of the ECB, during the conversation with Cazzullo, author of the book " When we were the masters of the world. Rome: the infinite empire”.
“I don't know why we only had 17 votes for Expo 2030, I don't know the whole story, but one thing that immediately came to mind is that we already had an Expo a few years ago in Milan, so maybe this influenced . I don't think there is a conspiracy as I've heard. There is already talk of conspiracies, the whole world wants this Expo and we just had it…".
“I really liked the book, it is full of suggestions and it is tempting to extract lessons for today. But sometimes if we look for legitimacy in history it can be dangerous, we think in a different context."
The Roman Empire? the Roman Empire, «a model of open society, made up of immigration, integration, assimilation, mobility of people. When the empire became large, the Romans understood that it was necessary to invest in the suburbs, in fact some works built in the provinces were larger than those built in Rome".
“It is a critical moment for Europe. And it is to be hoped that in the end those founding values of the European Union that have accompanied us this far will keep us united: democracy, freedom, human rights. We need a coordinated foreign policy and we need to think about greater political integration, about a true European Parliament, about starting to think that we are Italians and Europeans."
However, at the daily newspaper Fatto they asked themselves a question: “Why did Draghi choose this appointment to be seen again? Perhaps to crown Cazzullo director of the Corriere ?”.

EXTRACT OF THE ARTICLE FROM FATTO DAILY ON THE CAZZULLO-DRAGHI EVENT ( here is the full article ):
Nancy Brilli who "besides being good she is also beautiful" (cit. Aldo Cazzullo), "the president of Copasir, senator Calenda and Dago" (enunciated in this order by Cazzullo himself) in the front row, Mario Draghi sitting on the altar of Sant'Ignazio di Loyola with Father Don Vincenzo D'Adamo who tells how the students of the Jesuits frequented that Church (and the former prime minister studied at the Massimo): the presentation of the book by the deputy director of the Corriere della Sera , on the Ancient Rome, When We Were Masters of the World (Harper and Collins) resembles a scene from a Sorrentino film dedicated to the final dissolution of the Empire. In the presence of Urbano Cairo and Simona Ercolani, Draghi returns to the scene in an unexpected style. A kind of sleight of hand that seems to make the known image of the character dissolve, to replace it with another, as elusive as it is surreal. A trompe l'oeil , a bit like the flat dome of the Church. The dialogue between Cazzullo and Draghi – interspersed with Brilli's readings – touches everything and touches nothing. From the women of Ancient Rome, particularly uninhibited, according to Cazzullo, to Draghi's Romanist faith. With some unmissable peaks. Like when the author enlists Cesare among the journalists ante litteram (see the withering narration of " Vei, vidi, vici "): is he perhaps comparing himself? To the former prime minister who clarifies that "history is not the master of anything that concerns us": a veiled autobiographical remorse?
