Far from being a “grandfather at the service of institutions”, as he defined himself as prime minister two years ago. Mario Draghi is about to return to the political scene. The former prime minister at the presentation of his latest book Aldo Cazzullo “indirectly confirmed the rumors of recent months: the return seems to be close”, we read in a report published on the website Nicola Porro that connects the dots of SuperMario’s future. The first clue is the journalist’s intervention at the event Corriere della Seraa speech of “pure politics with Europeanist overtones”, in which Draghi carefully avoided “internal political issues – from immigration to patriarchy”, focusing on European themes.
“Europe we are going through a critical moment and we hope that these founding values that brought us together will keep us together”, said among other things the former prime minister who explains how “we need to reinvent a way of growing, but to do that we need to become state“. Another point to adhere to is collaboration with the Commission Ursula von der Leyen for analyzing the EU’s competitiveness. It is unlikely that it will be the last commitment of the former president of the ECB that arises from bitter disappointment, not having been elected President of the Republic. “An enormous desire, to Quirinal, dimmed due to some vetoes from right to left. But the 76-year-old man is not destined for retirement”, reads the analysis that outlines the profiles of the next and possible institutional commitment.
“The former prime minister will not run for anything. But all his choices are calculated” and “his movements are not random”, like “the trip to the United States and his statements” about the future of Europe. In short, there is talk of the role of the President of the European Commission after the end of von der Leyen’s mandate, but “the hottest hypothesis”, we read on Porro’s website, “is that Presidency of the European Council” After Carlos Michelwith Emmanuel Macron heavyweight sponsor.
