Government crisis, Renzi raises the stakes again. Conte’s plan for the new groups – Corriere.it

The last stormy clash of what, except for other twists, was the last night of the Count bis, consumed on the money of the Mes, the totem of the 5 Stars. Teresa Bellanova brought yet another revival of Renzi to the Council of Ministers and, when she tried to explain Italia Viva’s abstention on Recovery, she was silenced in a crescendo of acute and reproaches. Gualtieri, Amendola, Boccia, Provenzano have torn apart the request-ultimatum to include those 36 billion for health in the plan for the Next Generation Eu. Bellanova raised his voice and pointed the finger at Gualtieri: You are not the master of Recovery!. And the very prudent Speranza has lost his patience: You must stop exploiting the Covid emergency. Sentence that Giuseppe Conte re-launched with extreme harshness: Who speculates on the number of dead to ask for the Mes, offends reason and ethics.

A collective outburst that was still raging at 24.40 and that pays off even thinner is the thread of cobweb on which the government hangs. The Mes? Inadmissible proposal, they closed the 5 Stars in agreement with Chigi. Incredible as it may seem, Giuseppe Conte entered the CDM hoping for a miracle. If Renzi doesn’t break, we can reason, he confided. But woe to ask him to reverse, because Conte thinks it is Renzi’s turn and not him. Announcing a crisis in the dark in the middle of a pandemic is a very serious fact and I cannot ignore it, the Italians must know whose responsibility, the premier repeated until nightfall. The showdown begins in mid-morning, when Palazzo Chigi with three icy lines of note warns that, if Renzi has his ministers resigned, it will be impossible for Conte to redo a new executive with the support of Iv.

A bomb, which in rapid and studied succession is relaunched by the leaders of the M5S, who want to show themselves granite in defense of the lawyer. Luigi Di Maio displaced, for it aligns. The Pd dismayed: a suicide, if you burn the street of the Count ter and you don’t have the Managers, you end up going home. According to the Sherpas, the negotiations are interrupted, but meanwhile, behind the scenes in flames, something is moving. There is talk of a lightning crisis piloted as an extreme attempt, opening opened by the news that Renzi has postponed the press conference of the show down to this afternoon. Two days to mend the rift, if the prime minister really resigns himself to taking the road to Count ter.

If Renzi stops and votes the Dpcm, the extension of the state of emergency and the budget gap, then a reshuffle can be done, the dems said among themselves before the CDM. Conte waits, hopes and worries about possible counter-moves, the truth that he has not decided. The fear of the trap has not vanished, as well as the temptation to resist. They say he is much more determined than Renzi thinks, why should he commit suicide by signing the resignation letter?

According to the calculations of a loyalist, putting together the votes of Renzi, Salvini, Meloni and Berlusconi we arrive at 153, eight votes less than the absolute majority and therefore Conte can stay in the saddle for weeks. Andreotti model, who in 1990 went straight to replace the resigning ministers. But those who participated in the CDM assure that no, Conte does not intend to entrench himself. Parliamentarizing the crisis remains his obsession, at the cost of risking defeat. A disliked scenario at the Colle, where forcing is feared in a dramatic moment for the country. Conte’s idea in the event of a tear go to the Senate and challenge Renzi in the open, as he did with Salvini in 2019. Hardly, without discounts, throwing him on his shoulders the weight of an irresponsible breakup, but without immediately arriving at the vote. The plan that takes shape is to wait for new groups of homeland saviors to be born in Parliament and then return to the courtroom for the count. And while Renzi jokes about the birth of the Conte-Mastella executive, the hope of many in the government that the prime minister has really found the votes: not 4 or 5 leaders ready to sacrifice themselves for him, but a solid lifeboat, about fifteen senators.

At Palazzo Madama there is talk of the surprise that Berlusconi could make, after Gianni Letta was probed by Palazzo Chigi. For Mara Carfagna the blue science fiction rescue and there are those who assure that yesterday Berlusconi and Salvini spoke on the phone. The responsible issue remains open. Several senators have noted the activism of Raffaele Fantetti, former blue now in the Mixed, a lawyer as the premier and founder of the Italia23 association, who seems to aspire to become a list of support for Conte. If you go to vote in June, the professor will not return to the chair in Florence, so much so that the news (denied by Palazzo Chigi) has resumed that Conte has registered the symbol of his party, Together.
