After another day of political consultations, in which Silvio Berlusconi and Beppe Grillo also presented themselves, the prime minister in charge Mario Draghi is approaching the goal of forming his government. On Wednesday he will meet the unions, perhaps on Thursday he will go to the Quirinale to dissolve the reservation and perhaps present the list of ministers. then he will wait for the final result of the Five Star consultation on the Rousseau platform. But even yesterday, albeit with different nuances, Draghi received the green light from Pd, Cinque Stelle, Lega, Forza Italia, Leu and of course Italia Viva. Among the Five Stars, however, the frond is mounting that could lead either to abstention from the Draghi government or to separation from the group that relies on Beppe Grillo: in fact, tonight there will be a new edition of Vaffa Day by dissident Five Star parliamentarians who, however, are only 17. Here are the positions expressed by the various political forces after the confrontation with Draghi.
LEGA: "YES TO A GOVERNMENT THAT WILL NOT INCREASE TAXES"
"It was a very intense and useful meeting, I hope mutually, stimulating, we talked about many things, not about ministries, political governments and technicians and we won't talk about it because we have faith in the idea of a team for Italy", said the secretary of the League, Matteo Salvini after consultations with the prime minister in charge, Mario Draghi.
PD: "VERY SATISFIED WITH THE GUIDELINES"
“We are very satisfied with Draghi's guidelines,” said Pd secretary Nicola Zingaretti at the end of the consultations. “Work, to be created through investments; the Recovery to be completed as soon as possible; the goal of preventing the weakest people from being left alone”, summed up the dem leader. “The theme of businesses is also important, the theme of young people as a resource for the future and the attention to the theme of women particularly affected by this pandemic crisis. The refusal of new taxes and amnesties as a solution to a hard-hit economic system is good". "As regards our relationship with the 5 Star Movement - he concluded - we continue to believe the existence of this relationship is very important". On the League: "We are alternatives to the League, but no veto".
FORZA ITALIA: "NON-POLITICAL MAJORITY, PURPOSE GOVERNMENT"
"We confirm our support for the prime minister in charge of a non-political majority put together to respond to an emergency and for the necessary time," said Forza Italia leader Silvio Berlusconi, who purposely arrived in Rome to meet the prime minister in charge Mario Draghi . “I confirmed the support of Forza Italia to the president in charge with the request to make high-profile choices taking into account the indications of the parties, but deciding in full autonomy. We have confirmed a united response that we had asked for first and which is matched by the appeal of the President of the Republic. We will do our part with loyalty and a constructive spirit. The seriousness of the situation requires putting aside calculations, tactics and electoral interests to put the salvation of the country first".
ITALIA VIVA: "TOTAL SUPPORT FOR DRAGHI"
“We have guaranteed Italia Viva's full support for this plant and for the choices that the president will want to make,” he said the senator of Italia Viva Teresa Bellanova, at the end of the consultations with the prime minister in charge, Mario Draghi. “It is necessary to have“ great attention to the vaccination plan that must be strengthened quickly and attention to the world of school ”, he added. “We hope the work will be completed quickly in order to go to Parliament for confidence and work for the good of the country. We support the process, we hope that everyone will work to get this government, which is the government of hope, started as quickly as possible. The country needs to regain confidence in the future. We have responded to an important appeal made by the President of the Republic and as far as we are concerned Draghi's three main cornerstones, Europeanism, Atlanticism and environmentalism, we are convinced that we support them".
LION: “CONTINUE THREE ALLIANCE EXPERIENCE”
In the morning Liberi e Uguali also confirmed their support for the nascent Draghi government: "Our hope is that the three forces of the alliance can agree on a univocal attitude and we reserve the right to give an overall assessment after the prime minister in charge has made the further phases”, said Federico Fornaro, group leader of LeU in the Chamber, at the end of the consultations with the prime minister in charge. "I think the choice of the government team will remain with the prime minister, our hope is that we can continue the experience of the program and of the alliance and have a univocal attitude towards the government".
