Conte starts the government check. Today the decisive meeting with Renzi

TO Palazzo Chigi opens on the first day of the government verification to which the premier Joseph Conte was in fact forced out of the impasse. These are real consultations that take place in the executive headquarters, with numerous delegations that Conte chooses to see starting strictly from the group with the largest number of parliamentarians. The main theme is above all one: the reshuffle. Neither the M5S nor the Pd during the two afternoon meetings ask for it, on the contrary, the political leader of the Movement Vito Crimi puts a clear veto to the eventuality: "It's a surreal theme, we are not available". The theme is actually there, but it will have to be iv to put it, if you want. The atmosphere over Palazzo Chigi is suspended, no one, in the majority, has the certainty that the government will go ahead and the Conte himself is described as aware of the crucial nature of this verification. The distances are different, even between the M5S and the Pd. But Nicola Zingaretti, after a two-hour meeting between the Dem and Conte delegation, he removes the specter of the crisis: "The meeting was very useful, we believe that the action of this government must go forward with great harmony with the problems of the Italians". Talk about topics M5S, who sees in his delegation the presence of Louis DiMaio And Stephen Patuanelli, also to strengthen the political position of a Movement still held back by the change of leadership: "We asked for respect on very important measures such as the renewal of the eco-bonus, the conflict of interests, the stop to drilling and the lowering of taxes", underlines Di Maio, branding, like Crimi, the debate on armchairs as "surreal". The M5S immediately puts the issue of the reshuffle on the table with Conte: "We are happy with our government team, if someone is not happy with theirs, tell them", the message delivered is in a nutshell. There control room on the Recovery Fund, fuse that blew up the balance of the majority? The M5S is not against it but the structure needs to be remodulated, parliamentarized and individual Ministries must be allowed to deepen the projects, explain the pentastellati.

The topics on which the Pd are significantly different and touch nodes such as that of constitutional reforms and, above all, of the electoral law and also the delicate health file, hand-in-hand with the activation of the month. “But let's put it in a constructive way”, is the prudence of Zingaretti who remarks that there was no talk of a reshuffle at Palazzo Chigi. Just before, it is Maria Elena Boschi, on the eve of today's meeting at 13.00, between Conte and the Renzian delegation, to reiterate a similar concept: "The reshuffle is not on the agenda". Yet the ghost of a tweak to the Government team he roams like never before in the Palaces of politics. According to some majority rumors, the hypothesis of Di Maio and a big figure from the Pd deputy prime minister, Renzi for Foreign Affairs and the former political leader for the Interior, would even be circulating; those directly involved vehemently deny it. However, not so many ministers are sure of their place: certainly Robert Gualtieri, Stephen Patuanelli, Vincent Amendola and a few others. The purse of possible new ministers, among the Renzians, sees the prices of rising Hector Rosato while in the Democratic Party there is always the Mit node. There are those in the M5S who think that Renzi's goal is to transform Conte's political majority, perhaps with an expansion to FI or the center-right. But only today will Conte understand whether or not Renzi really wants the crisis.

Salvini and Meloni clarify. The center-right is united and cohesive

A press conference together to list the demands that with a single voice the centre-right tabled (in the form of amendments) to the budget law and then, on the sidelines, a clarification after the tensions of recent days. Is this the image that Matthew Salvini, Giorgia Meloni And Antonio Tajanithey wanted to provide on the day the premier Joseph Conte it has effectively opened consultations with the majority parties. The photograph serves to show a center-right united and cohesive, ready to provide an alternative for leading the country. "On a day in which the majority argues about seats, we bring concrete proposals for the Maneuver", underlines the secretary of the League Matteo Salvini who later, meeting the secretariat, will summarize the state of the art as follows: "First they remove the disturbance Renzi , Conte and the Democratic Party and the better; the centre-right is compact and is an alternative ready to govern and help Italy; he has proposed economic solutions, while the Government is talking about reshuffles and armchairs”. What is certain is that sitting together behind a table was not easy, especially after the tensions of the last few days linked to Salvini's openness to a bridge government in the event of the fall of the current one, an idea rejected without appeal by Giorgia Meloni who hadn't hesitated to say she was "astonished" by the words of the former interior minister. The position taken by the Northern League secretary needed clarification and the two had a discussion before and after the press conference which led to a clearing up.

No intention to break the coalition, would have been in summary the position reached, but awaited for the moves of the Government. In short, the center-right remains at the window, leaving Conte to solve the problems with his majority; however, should there be a change of scenery, the pact signed is that the coalition will decide together what to do. However, it is difficult to understand how much this balance holds. It being understood that no one intends to split the centre-right, it is evident that sensitivities within it are different: the leader of the League in fact, it seems that he continues to look with interest at a change of scenery, while it is no mystery that Silvio Berlusconi has always been in more dialoguing positions. And it is no coincidence that just as the leader of the League opens up to a bridge government, in a letter to Courier he trusts "that beyond the reasons for alignment we can find a convergence on the concrete needs of the country". The Knight reiterates the distinction of roles between the majority and the opposition while extending a hand to the executive with regard to the country's needs, especially related to the Covid emergency. Sharper Giorgia Meloni which speaks of a real "warning to sailors" reaffirming the unavailability to "participate in a manger set up on the skin of the Italians".
