Def and upcoming appointments: GDP in 2023 at +0,9% and deficit at 4,3% but Salvini demands a very armchair

Final touches to public appointments and Council of Ministers for the launch of the Def scheduled for the Government today - The games are done but Meloni must tame Salvini's concern

Def and upcoming appointments: GDP in 2023 at +0,9% and deficit at 4,3% but Salvini demands a very armchair

First the names and then the Def: Tuesday after Easter very intense for the Government. Prime Minister Georgia Melons wants to definitively close the list of appointments of large public companies before the imminent departure of the Minister of Economy, Giancarlo Giorgetti, for the meeting of the International Monetary Fund in Washington. The games are essentially done but the last consultation will be held this morning before the Council of Ministers which has the Def on the agenda.

APPOINTMENTS: GAMES DONE AND MELONS PULL STRAIGHT BUT SALVINI SCALPITA

The premier's orientation is to confirm Descalzi at the helm of theEni, to promote Donnarumma to CEO of Is in the, to nominate for the first time a woman (Di Foggia in pole position) at the head of Terna, to confirm Del Fante at Post and to choose the former minister Cingolani for Leonardo, barring last minute surprises. But the head of the League, Matteo Salvini, pawing and would like at least one of the five major seats, not content with having an eye on the appointments of Trenitalia e RFI, which he oversees as Minister of Transport and Infrastructure.

However, Meloni is willing to keep going, even if she will make some concessions to the allies on the presidencies and on the composition of the boards of companies under nominations.

DEF IN TODAY'S COUNCIL OF MINISTERS

As for the Def (Economics and Finance Document) which will outline the macroeconomic framework in which the Government operates and which will also be a point of reference in discussions with the European Commission on PNRR and that's not all, the forecasts speak of GDP growth for this year of just under 1%, which if really achieved wouldn't be really bad, and a deficit contained at 4,3%. In the next few hours the curtain will rise.
