Is Il Foglio papered up on Draghi at the Quirinale?
Draghi at the Quirinale? The auspices of the sheet and the words of the dragons (real or presumed). The Scratches of Damato
Only the facts, moreover even in the short term, let's say between January and February, maximum March, will be able to tell us at least from the point of view of internal politics, certainly not extraneous to the interests of the sheet he directs, whether it is more consoling or consoling the bet on ' optimism that Claudio Cerasa renewed at the end of the fifth edition of the homonymous party organized by his newspaper in Florence. Where more than twenty guests of every color and profession took turns on stage, so to speak, interviewed by the best names in the newspaper, except for the founder Giuliano Ferrara, to explore our present and our future.
At least until last November 23, that is no more than a week ago, when Giuliano Ferrara himself began to joke about it by conferring a "nice thirty and praise, plus the academic embrace" to his ever friend and "love" Silvio Berlusconi, now engaged in the climb to the Quirinale behind the panel of a building site not yet open, the possible transfer of Mario Draghi from Palazzo Chigi to the Quirinale had been an important component of the optimism of the Foglio . Where in seven years – Ferrara and friends had explained – Draghi himself could have done for Italy, and even for Europe, much more than he would have been granted for a few months or weeks as prime minister with another head of state.
Although reduced by Ferrara's sarcastic applause at Berlusconi's "difficult mission but who knows" in place of Mattarella, Draghi's goal, dream and so on at the Quirinale resurfaced in a little while in all the passages of the meeting of the Foglio in Hall of the Cinquecento of Palazzo Vecchio. But not even the name of the party has managed to change the atmosphere implied by that refuge of Ferrara in the irony of November 23rd. The Minister of Forces Mara Carfagna, although considered one of the least plastered of her political side, launched an appeal from Florence to leave Draghi quietly in his place, as Silvio Berlusconi himself recommended at the same time, allowing himself to be interviewed on the phone in his Milan by Corriere della Sera. .
On the same position, while not going so far, at least to open up to a candidacy by Berlusconi for the Quirinale, Foreign Minister Luigi Di Maio has placed himself in front of the “leafy”. That even as president of the new guarantee committee, or whatever his name is, in the 5 Star Movement he is the friend, let's say, from whom president Giuseppe Conte must be watched more: even more than the other but supreme "guarantor " Beppe Grillo. From which it is no coincidence that the former Prime Minister has just earned the title of "major expert in penultimatum", that is of nothing, in a videoconference.
The secretary of the Democratic Party Enrico Letta, also in Florence among the "leafy", was a worrying allusive on Draghi al Quirinale when, professing himself in favor of the ordinary exhaustion of the legislature in 2023, despite the desire for ballot boxes attributed to him by Matteo Renzi , he said that the succession at the top of the state must not be "the prelude to the precipitate of events towards early elections". In short, Draghi "has to work" again at Palazzo Chigi, as Il Tempo has titled . “To the government by force”, Libero wrote in red, warning a “great alliance” against a transfer of the Prime Minister to Colle.
