Summary Italy suffers from chronic political instabilityCabinet seen discussing proposed reform on FridayBroad majority needed to avoid referendumROME, Oct 30 (Reuters) - Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni and top ministers on Monday backed a constitutional reform proposal introducing the direct election of the prime minister, in an effort to end the country's chronic political instability. Meloni made constitutional reform a key policy plank of her right-wing coalition after winning power in September last year. Italy has had almost 70 governments since World War Two, more than twice the number in Britain and Germany. Matteo Renzi, who stepped down as premier after his failed reform in 2016, said his small centrist Italia Viva party would be ready to back the direct election of the prime minister. The prime minister need not necessarily be an elected politician.

„Vizita la Roma a început cu o discuție foarte bună cu Președintele Republicii Italiene, domnul Sergio Mattarella. Am vorbit despre stadiul actual al cooperării bilaterale, despre prietenia care leagă țările noastre și mi-am exprimat determinarea de a dezvolta în continuare relații bune de parteneriat cu Italia”, a spus Sandu. „Am vorbit cu domnul Matarella și despre relațiile economice și comerciale dintre țările noastre, dezvoltate pe parcursul celor 29 de ani de la stabilirea relațiilor diplomatice, precum și despre posibilitatea de a le amplifica și de a extinde domeniile de interes investițional. Mai multe investiții înseamnă mai multe locuri de muncă, mai multe contribuții bugetare, deci și o țară mai bogată”, a afirmat Președintele Republicii Moldova. La rândul său, Președintele Sergio Mattarella a dat asigurări că Italia va rămâne un susținător activ al Republicii Moldova.

Luigi Di Maio, the anti-establishment M5S party leader, put forward Roberto Fico to be elected as speaker of the lower house. Italy held a general election on March 4 but no one party or coalition gained enough of the vote to govern alone. The election shocked Europe as M5S and Lega, which both ran on an anti-establishment, populist message, performed well while the former ruling Democratic Party did badly. M5S and center-right coalition? Protopapa said that while J.P. Morgan recognized that "the relationship between the senior leaders of M5S and Lega has been fairly cooperative, with declarations of mutual appreciation" there were constraining factors that could prevent a "populist coalition" of Lega and M5S.
