Technical ministers are the exception, not the rule. Here is the ‘bet’ that Silvio Berlusconi placed on Giorgia Meloni for the formation of the new centre-right government. Speaking on behalf of the Cav is, as usual, Antonio Tajani, who on TV denies “frictions” with the FDI president and Matteo Salvini, but sends a precise message to his allies: “Equality of dignity for Forza Italia, which means have a weight similar to that of the League, as we obtained the same votes. We are decisive, we are for a political executive, so if there is a character who in life has collected an experience such as being in government without being in Parliament, it can happen, but there has to be cases, not the rule…” . Words that in via della Scrofa sound like a kind of warning, to which no one responds, because in these days of frenetic negotiations, suspended only on this Sunday dedicated to the family, silence is golden. It is better to act and only speak when there are concrete facts and decisions to be communicated.
Meloni will continue doing bilateral activities next week and will have 360 degree contacts to reach a high level team, with quality people, in the interest of the country. Meanwhile, the totonomi doesn’t stop and it’s Andkronos who names all the names. In addition to the optimism professed by all and the guarantee of unity, many questions remain on the table, starting with key ministries, such as the Ministry of Interior and Foreign Affairs. The latest rumors confirm Meloni’s intention to keep Farnesina (Elisabetta Belloni remains on pole) in order to give foreign policy its own stamp, to preserve its own autonomy of action. Consequently, the Tajani blue, given among the favorites precisely by Foreigners, could go to Defense. At that moment, for Ignazio La Russa, former minister of defense in the Berlusconi government, the post of undersecretary to the prime minister would arise or, according to the latest rumors, the leadership of the Fdi group in the Senate (the president of deputies Francesco Lollobrigida). There is talk of important positions in Palazzo Chigi for the shadow man of the leader of the Brothers of Italy, senator Giovanbattista Fazzolari, of the economic manager of the party, Maurizio Leo, of the current president of Copasir, Adolfo Urso and Daniela Santanchè, that the indiscretions give in to tourism rush. The Ministry of the Sea continues to be a true passion for Meloni, a new figure she strongly desired.
In addition to Tajani, the possibility of a ministerial update for the leaders of the Azzurri group, Paolo Barelli and Anna Maria Bernini (former Minister of Policies of the European Union), and for Licia Ronzulli, head of the party for relations with allies. According to some rumours, doubts have arisen about the Cav’s faithful, although for her there is insistent talk of a place in Education or Health, the latter case that would also see another blue in the field, the outgoing vice-president of the Chamber, Andrea Mandelli . Alessandro Cattaneo, the current head of the party’s departments of force, could also be in the government’s game. Health, however, could be entrusted to Letizia Moratti, to demine the grain of the Lombardy region, where the sparks are at home with Governor Fontana. Fdi could give his consent (Moratti is highly esteemed by Meloni), also considering that the re-election of Fontana himself is no longer a taboo for Melonians.
For Justice Fdi would have thought of the ex-prosecutor Carlo Nordio (the other candidate for the same office, Giulia Bongiorno of the League, is given to public service), while for the South the name of the outgoing Sicilian governor, Nello Musumeci, is mentioned , and for the Department of Reforms that of the former president of the Senate, Marcello Pera. Another IDE exponent, Fabio Rampelli, would remain among the eligible candidates for the Environment, while MEP and ECR co-chair Raffaele Fitto could win European Affairs. Currently, Guido Crosetto is delivered. As for the successor to the Lamorgese, even today, in the parts of via Bellerio, they make it known that the encore inside remains Salvini’s objective. The League’s number one could offer the Nicola Molteni card, a loyal secretary, or that of Matteo Piantedosi, the mayor of Rome, who is in dispute with the other mayor Giuseppe Pecoraro. Anyway, if Salvini dropped out, he could move on to work, as Gian Marco Centinaio remains in the saddle of Agriculture. Erika Stefani must be confirmed for disability, while Lucia Borgonzoni can play for cultural heritage, a place ‘reserved’ by Vittorio Sgarbi.
For the guide of Via XX Settembre on pole there would always be a technician, but not Fabio Panetta, at least for now. Domenico Siniscalco’s name is always mentioned. If Maurizio Lupi, representing us moderates, managed to reach the Relations with Parliament, we are talking about Eugenia Roccella, elected in the FDI lists, for the Family. The name of Luca Ricolfi is mentioned for the position, but there are those who do not exclude the surprise card, Salvini, who would also be eyeing Mise for the League, a ministry currently held by Giancarlo Giorgetti in the Draghi government. The game of House and Senate presidencies is tied hand in hand with ministerial risk, still uphill. Meloni, they say, would always be oriented to maintain the state’s second position for the center-right and leave Montecitorio’s leadership to the opposition, as a gesture of political-institutional fair play. As Casellati’s successor in dispute there is always Northern League player Roberto Calderoli, but it is not excluded that Fdi could put a welcome name on Palazzo Madama.
