Giorgia Meloni fires Rivera del Tesoro on live TV for the MPS case and more?
What the Prime Minister, Giorgia Meloni, said during the year-end press conference on the MPS dossier and what many in the government majority thought…
Live TV torpedo against the top management of the Treasury on the MPS dossier (bank controlled by the Ministry of Economy).
No turn on the words by the Prime Minister, Giorgia Meloni, during the press conference at the end of the year: "Mps situation managed quite badly".
WHAT MELONI SAID ABOUT MPS
“We need to favor a banking system that does not repeat the mistakes of the past. We are working on the Monte dei Paschi di Siena dossier, another great legacy issue. a very difficult situation, managed quite badly up to now, tens of billions spent on taxpayers ”, said the Prime Minister, Giorgia Meloni, in the press conference at the end of the year. “Today a capital increase was made, there is a restructuring that seems quite solid to us – he added -. We are working for an orderly exit of the state and to create the conditions for which there are more Italian banking centers in Italy”.
INTERPRETATIONS OF MELONI'S WORDS AND INDIRECT REFERENCES TO RIVERA
A torpedo on live TV against Rivera. So many in the government majority in Parliament commented on Meloni's words, given that the MPS dossier was precisely managed by Alessandro Rivera, director general of the Treasury department at the Ministry of Economy. Words welcomed with satisfaction by almost all of the right-centre majority, but perhaps not too warmly by the current minister holder, Northern League member Giancarlo Giorgetti, given that the economy minister is reportedly slowing down Rivera's torpedoing.
IS RIVERA A DRAGIAN?
But are we sure that Rivera is a true Dragon? In truth, it has been whispered for some time in the department of via Venti Settembre and at Palazzo Chigi – as Start Magazine wrote last October – the former premier Mario Draghi would not have appreciated much the work of the general directorate of the Treasury given stalemate, chaos and uncertainties on significant items linked to large companies controlled by the Treasury such as Mps, such as Ita and such as the new structure of Aspi, in which the current government majority is now discovering shareholder agreements unbalanced in favor of foreign funds .

EXTRACT FROM A START MAGAZINE ARTICLE ON RIVERA OF OCTOBER 28, 2022 :
Rivera protégé of Draghi? You have read?!
Questions and amazements of this kind chase each other among the private messages of ministerial officials and in the corridors of the Ministry of Economy.
The questions arise from an article in today's Repubblica newspaper in which it is said that the director general of the Treasury, Alessandro Rivera, would be in the balance with the change of executive.
If the Economy Minister, the Northern League member Giancarlo Giorgetti, would not be against a reconfirmation of Rivera – but many have doubts about the solidity of the Northern League exponent's positions and opinions – Brothers of Italy and the Prime Minister, Giorgia Meloni, they would like a replacement.
In the newspaper directed by Maurizio Molinari's praise of Rivera, the newspaper of the Gedi group writes that there is a "charge that Fratelli d'Italia charges against Rivera: having mishandled the dossiers on Ita, railways and motorway concessions".
For this reason, the part of the article in La Repubblica that is arousing amazement in the corridors of the Mef is another. And it is the one in which Rivera is defined as "Draghi's pupil". Especially since the current director general entered the Treasury by competition as an official in 2000, a few weeks before Draghi left the general directorate of the Treasury.
