Italian Premier Mario Draghi is weighing appeals to rescind his resignation, calling the spontaneous popular support for his government 'unprecedented and impossible to ignore.'
Draghi laid out priorities for Parliament to consider in rebuilding “from the top” the majority needed for the government to work efficiently, suggesting he was willing to stay on if they were embraced. Draghi directly challenged the 5-Star Movement to decide if they were on board or not, after the populists withheld support for the government in a confidence vote last week.
But it appeared the waves of appeals for him to reconsider, from inside and out of Italy, had an effect. In recent days, political leaders, mayors, doctors’ associations and ordinary citizens have urged him to stay on at such a crucial time, with soaring inflation and energy prices, a war in Ukraine and implementation of the EU recovery funds at stake.
Despite Draghi’s suggestion that he was open to remaining, there was no clarity on how the day would play out: After Draghi’s speech, lawmakers will have the chance to reply and Draghi the chance to respond. There may be some sort of vote later in the day.
