Quirinale, in the Democratic Party there are those who want Berlusconi in the running
Incredible but true, at least according to what the Corriere della Sera writes. In the Democratic Party there are those who want Silvio Berlusconi in the running. Not so much to really get the Forza Italia leader and historic rival to Colle for real, but to block Mario Draghi’s race. “The fact is that with his descent into the field, the Knight blocks (for now) Draghi’s candidacy. The barrage against the election of the premier as head of state is not linked to the issue of the duration of the legislature. a much more delicate aspect, which Bettini evokes when he invokes “a jolt of politics”: that is, the primacy of parties, which fear a definitive commissioner if the former president of the ECB were to go to the Quirinale “, writes the Corriere.
The institutional puzzle with Draghi at the Quirinale
Meanwhile, an institutional puzzle is revealed in the event that Draghi goes up to the Colle. The question is: who will do the consultations for the formation of the new government? Who between Draghi and Mattarella, in the passing of the baton between the two, will have the task of calling parties to form the new government? The outgoing premier or the head of state running out of office? The Press tries to trace the possible scenarios.
First scenario with Draghi al Colle: Supermario manages the consultations with Brunetta premier pro tempore
Here is the first scenario told by La Stampa. “Draghi is elected president of the Republic and resigns as prime minister: he will manage the consultations. Renato Brunetta would take his place pro tempore, as senior minister. It is a case in which the variable of the the day that will decide the election and another indiscretion, confirmed by institutional sources in Montecitorio. Mattarella’s mandate expires on February 3. The presidency of the Chamber would be oriented towards organizing the calendar of votes in joint session starting from 20-25 January . (…) also because January 25 is the date on which the conversion of the Green Pass decree expires “.
Second scenario: Mattarella manages the crisis
The second scenario, the Press still writes, “instead assumes that Mattarella is managing government crises. In this case Draghi, who resigned from Palazzo Chigi but already elected president of the Republic, would remain prime minister for ordinary administration pending the Head of State carries out the consultations as a last act before leaving the Quirinale “.
