The wait is over: the new prime minister in charge is Enrico Letta (47 years old). The head of the delegation of the Democratic Party was summoned to the Quirinale for 12 by the President of the Republic, who will give him the job.
The consents are transversal. “We had indicated both Giuliano Amato and Enrico Letta – said Renato Brunetta (PDL) -. Berlusconi's preference was to indicate the person most qualified and appreciated by Napolitano, Berlusconi had placed the final judgment in the hands of the head of state".
However, a warning to the Democrats also comes from the PDL. "It is good to clarify to the Democratic Party that for us there will not be a new Marini case - said the secretary Angelino Alfano -, we will not give support to one of them to whom they will not give real, visible support and with a very clear and unequivocal fiscal program . If it is a question of any government, semi-balneare, whoever wants to do it, but we are not there ”.
"Good, very good", was the comment of the former secretary of the Democratic Party, Pierluigi Bersani. The main competitor of Letta in the race to the Colle, Giuliano Amato, was also satisfied.
