The Democratic Party clings to Conte, Italia Viva launches Di Maio. Is the hole card Franceschini?

The Democratic Party clings to Conte, Italia Viva launches Di Maio. Is the hole card Franceschini?

Facts, names and rumors about the government crisis

"We share and support, and on this I ask for a mandate from the management, the hypothesis of proposing to President Mattarella an assignment to President Conte to give life to a government by taking up his appeal in the direction of national responsibility".

Thus the secretary of the Democratic Party Nicola Zingaretti in the report with which he opened the national leadership of the party.

“A government – explained Zingaretti – that can count on a large parliamentary base. May it be in the wake of the best pro-European tradition of our country and commit itself to the mission of relaunching and renewing the European institutions. That it is able to face the major emergencies posed by the pandemic from a health and social point of view and tackles the problems of development starting with the implementation of the opportunities that Europe offers us ”.

The Democratic Party, therefore, added Zingaretti, is aiming for a "large and solid" majority. But how can it be broad and solid if one of the pillars of the majority – that is Matteo Renzi's Italia Viva makes another name of the 5 Star Movement, what can we do?

The question is not strange given what was said by former minister Teresa Bellanova.

"Di Maio premier? We start from the program, above all we do not place or suffer vetoes ", the president of Italia Viva and former minister, Teresa Bellanova, told Tgcom24 , specifying that Matteo Renzi's party" does not veto even Conte, but there is no only him. What interests us is how to deal with the crisis, we do not discuss men but the programmatic system ”.

However, the indiscretion of the newspaper la Repubblica must also be considered.

“Renzi does not say no to the Count ter, but the goal is an executive model Ursula. A name whispered several times: that of Dario Franceschini ”, wrote the newspaper directed by Maurizio Molinari, based on Renzian sources.

ABSTRACT ANSA

One hour after the start of the consultations at the Quirinale – Sergio Mattarella will see the presidents of the Senate and Chamber Casellati and Fico in the window in the afternoon – today is also the day of the parties, called to decide the line in view of tomorrow's consultations and Friday at Colle.

"We are facing a narrow passage", opens the Pd secretariat Nicola Zingaretti , again accusing Iv of the "irresponsible" opening of the crisis. Al Nazareno the secretary probes the moods of the dem and defends the Count ter. Conte "is the point of balance," he says. But everyone knows that not all of the Democratic Party is willing to hang itself on Conte,

Spotlights also focused on the nocturnal meeting of the Italia Viva groups, with Matteo Renzi still decisive for a possible Count ter. The newborn group of Europeanists is still not so robust in numbers as to guarantee an absolute majority in Palazzo Madama ("We will grow up, there are discussions in progress", assures Maie Merlo, however) and Renzi remains the balance for the re-appointment to Conte. This puts the M5s in fibrillation, half convinced of the definitive "never again" to the senator of Rignano.

The leader of the Democratic Party in the Senate Marcucci oils the negotiation: "There was a narrow majority even before, we have a duty to expand it" with the Europeans but also with Italia Viva. But while Bellanova does not exclude Di Maio premier, the words of Ettore Rosato do not help the negotiation, when they evoke the arrival of a woman at Palazzo Chigi and in any case subordinate the choice of a name to the comparison on the programs. He will go to Colle Iv without vetoes but certainly also without mentioning the name of Conte, on whom the Pd and M5s still make up, despite evident cracks in their respective parties.

Meanwhile, the center-right is preparing to go up to Colle as a unitary delegation, but without a real unitary proposal. Salvini insists: Lega, Fdi and Fi will ask for elections. But the blue group leader Gelmini denies a moment later: “Forza Italia does not ask for the vote”. A Rubik's cube that will be the turn of the true Head of State.
