Crisis, from “Ursula” to the technician: all possible types of government

Reincarico al premier? Either from the consultations at the Quirinale will emerge certain numbers in favor of Giuseppe Conte, who yesterday at 12 resigned in the hands of Sergio Mattarella, or it is difficult to imagine. To find out, however, it still takes 48 hours.

Agenda

This afternoon Mattarella will meet the presidents of the Chamber and Senate, Roberto Fico and Maria Elisabetta Casellati. Then tomorrow afternoon the representatives of Leu, Italia viva and Pd. On Friday the united center-right and the M5S.

All possible options

National Salvation – It is the last scenario that emerged. A Count who happens to himself. It would provide for the current majority, 5 Stars, Pd, Leu, enlarged again to Italia Viva, but removing Renzi from the role of needle of the balance, with the entry of the groups of “responsible”, with centrist area parliamentarians trust in Conte has already been voted, but also with the UDC the movement of Toti, Cambiamo !. All to be verified, especially Iv’s willingness to be part of an executive of this type.

Ursula – The expression was born with the crisis of the yellow-green government in 2019 and refers to the political forces that, in July 2019, gave their vote in Strasbourg to elect the president of the EU Commission, Ursula von der Leyen. A coalition of social democrats and popular people, which in our parliament would range from the Giallorossi alliance to Forza Italia, very difficult to digest for the 5 Stars, not very inclined to an agreement with the Knight.

Republican – Under the term “republican” would be all the political forces that oppose the sovereign right. Therefore, it could extend up to Forza Italia, which is registered with the EPP. A formula relaunched by Goffredo Bettini, ideologue of the Democratic Party, who spoke precisely of a “republican and pro-European” executive.

New Premier – In this case it would be a government with the same majority, extended to the centrists, but a different premier. We should start looking for a candidate among the 5 stars, with of course Foreign Minister Di Maio in the front row. Not without considering the dem, ready with their names: Dario Franceschini and the secretary Nicola Zingaretti. In this case, the satisfaction of the grillini must be verified.

Technical – Among the possible scenarios there is also a new government run by an authoritative “technician”. The most popular name in this case is that of Mario Draghi or the former president of the Constitutional Court Marta Cartabia. A solution that provides for a team of ministers made up partly of politicians and partly of outsiders, supported by different forces united in a logic of broad understandings.

National unity – All the parties of the parliamentary arc united to pull the country out of the emergency: in this case the guide could be technical (Draghi, Cartabia, the governor of Bankitalia Visco or Carlo Cottarelli) or political.

Of purpose – If there is no room for a robust majority, there could be a purpose government. That is a transitional government, with a limited temporary horizon: elections. A government that could be led by a technician and a politician, with the approval of the parties represented in Parliament, bound to a specific mandate made explicit by the Quirinale, which could be the management of the pandemic emergency.

Elections – The extreme ratio. In this case, Mattarella would only have to dissolve the Chambers to send the country, in full pandemic, to vote. It is the solution that (almost) everyone likes least. But the crossed vetoes and narrow numbers do not rule it out at all.
