What will happen in Italy after the resignation of Prime Minister Mario Draghi?

After the resignation of Prime Minister Mario Draghi, a series of mechanisms are activated in Italy that are clearly established in the Italian Constitution. But the best thing that can happen to Repubblica is that there is Draghi 2 or an Bis from Mario Draghi’s government, for which a vote of confidence in parliament must be obtained.

continuity is needed because there are countless pressing issues to be resolved.

The President of the Republic Sergio Mattarella did well to reject Draghi’s resignation and invited him to appear in Parliament, the report will be deposited on Wednesday at 10.30 in the deputies, then it will go to the Senate to ask for the vote of confidence and then return on Thursday to the our Chamber to read and receive from us, Members, the vote of confidence which, I am convinced, will be in his favor.

If the unlikely thing to happen is that there is no vote of confidence in Parliament for Draghi, there are two ways left: 1) A technical government is established and not political, until the elections, a difficult path and as a deputy I would not support it with my vote. 2) An advance and call for elections.

Funds

The first option would damage Italy because beyond the differences of opinion that caused the fall of the government, we have the funds for the growth of the new Italy. € 209 billion from the EUplus 40 billion euros of its own, for a total of 249 billion in investments, to which must be added the over 160 billion in savings that Italians have in banks, since Italians are savers by nature.

In other words, we have EUR 400 billion at our disposal. Of them, 209 billion euros, we have to invest before 2O26 otherwise, we have to pay them back. Never in its history has Italy had so much money at its disposal, not even with the Marshall Plan.

But let’s see the fundamental details of the Italian political system:

– As a parliamentary republic, political leadership takes shape through the relationship of trust that binds the Government to the two Houses of Parliament.

Confidence

– The Chamber of Deputies has (630 deputies) and the Senate (315 senators, democratically elected plus some senators for life).

– At most, a term lasts five years, but it can happen that it dissolves before that time.

– The two chambers are symmetrical in the sense that they share the same powers. the cameras they can always withdraw their trust from the government. They can do this through a motion presented by at least one tenth of its members.

– The Government can, at any time, propose a motion by presenting the “question of trust” on a bill, as happened in this circumstance.

USEI and its parliamentary representation reaffirm their position in favor of the unity of the center-right sectors.
