21 August 2019The National Directorate of the Democratic Party unanimously approved the agenda summarizing the line and the report of the secretary Nicola Zingaretti: yes to a government with a broad base and "no to accordicchi". Tomorrow morning the appointment at the Quirinale for consultations with the head of state Sergio Mattarella.

Zingaretti: "No to a transitional but strong government"
"I do not believe in a transitional government that leads to the vote. It would be risky for the Democrats and also for the country. Now it is up to us to move and indicate a road. Within the path of consultation we must give availability if there is the possibility of a new parliamentary majority capable of giving serious answers to the country's problems ". Nicola Zingaretti said in the report to the Direction of the PD. The secretary then commented on the speech of President Conte: "The government has finished its journey between insults and shouts and with a belated report by the President Conte of the institutional irresponsibility of the main protagonist of his Executive. In the face of the dramatic situation of the Country, we have a duty as a democratic force to give availability and check if there is the possibility of creating a new parliamentary majority, strong, of discontinuity and of a broad parliamentary base that convinces people of our reasons: our proposal must be clear - he reiterated - linearly transparent to avoid all those who attempt this experiment the accusation of transformism. No to a confused crowded ". The secretary Dem closes therefore to any hypothesis of accordicchio: "Must be the best possible government. In contrary case no accordicchio temporaggiatore, the road will be the vote. To build a road of the hope".

Zingaretti underlines the need for a "verification to build a possible program, shared by a large parliamentary majority. We will test these conditions in the light of the sun which, if not realized, will lead the country to early elections", says the leader of the Democratic Party. And with a satisfied air he concludes: "Today an important step forward has been made, because all the united Democratic Party has found itself in this position".


"Five points to deal with M5S"
"Loyal membership of the European Union; full recognition of representative democracy, starting from the centrality of parliament; development based on environmental sustainability; change in the management of migratory flows, with full leadership of Europe; turning of economic and social recipes, in key redistributive, which opens a season of investments ": These are the five points indicated by Zingaretti in the report to the Direction of the Democratic Party to deal with the birth of a new government. "We cannot create a contract by changing chapters and subscribers. The challenge is higher," he said.

Franceschini: Zingaretti has sent for dialogue with M5s
The PD Directorate "unanimously chooses the path of responsibility in the face of the country. Now Zingaretti has the strength of a united party with which it can start a clear and clear dialogue with the 5s to try to give life to a breakthrough government". The deputy Pd, Dario Franceschini, writes it on Twitter, commending the outcome of the direction.

Giallorossi government hypothesis
The hypothesis of a possible Giallorossi or rossogiallo government, Pd-M5S, returns to the field. Hypothesis that has appeared in alternate phases, in recent days, between denials and leaks forward. Hypothesis that has divided the different souls of the Democratic Party: on one side the former premier Matteo Renzi and his, the first to launch it, on the other the secretary dem Nicola Zingaretti who has always shown caution.

After the intervention of the resigning prime minister Giuseppe Conte, the secretary of the Democratic Party was clear: "everything said about Minister Salvini by President Conte can only be shared. But also attention to the risks of self-absolution". Zingaretti recalled that "in these 15 months he has been the Prime Minister, also of the Minister Salvini, and if so many things are true because he waited for the mistrust to report them? And the list of things done cannot not follow the list of disasters produced in the economy, at work, on growth, on development ".

"We will have a direction in which we will speak not of ourselves but of content, of a platform that could be the basis of a possible dialogue for a government or our electoral program," explained former Defense Minister Roberta Pinotti. A difficult phase to manage for the Democratic Party, which must demonstrate that unity so evoked. As it turns out, an agreement with the M5S - for the Gypsy side - should be on a legislature government, while the Renzian wing would aim at a government of purpose, as highlighted by Senator Matteo Renzi in his speech in the palace hall Madama.

Renzi: "From direction sent strong to Zingaretti"
"I believe that today Zingaretti will receive a strong mandate. The problem is not the Democratic Party. This time Salvini has combined the mess or we are all in a position to lend a hand to help Italy or we go to vote." This was said by the senator of the Democratic Party, Matteo Renzi, a guest at Radio Anch'io on Radio Raiuno, speaking of the dem management that will meet today to express a position on the solution of the government crisis.

đź—Ł @ matteorenzi at @radioanchio: "#Zingaretti said one clear thing, the #PD is there if there is a strong government and legislature. I believe that the alternative today is not between #GovernmentIstituzionalInstitutional and legislature: it is between # elections and #government ". #CrisiDiGoverno https://t.co/zk3pbD7SQZ

The former secretary of the Democracy, in order to avoid the VAT increase, would be ready for a government with the five men: "I think that a man of the institutions must pass over all the insults that have been made to him and think about the good of the country, I hope will prevail the consensus ", stressed Renzi. "I did my part, it hurts me to see people who have insulted me in the face but who today sends the country to vote with the increase in VAT is irresponsible," he added.

Calenda: "Useless direction"
Critical to this hypothesis is the PD Euro-MP, Carlo Calenda: "I would say that the leadership of the Democratic Party is useless. Renzi and Marcucci have already given the party line in the House: opening to the fifties. As already happened after the last direction: the PD as a unitary party that takes decisions in the organs ".

For the Pd group leader in the Chamber, Graziano Delrio "finally the government of zero growth, zero investment, zero employment went home. A government obsessed with immigration more than from industrial crises and redundancy has ended. Now Italy can look ahead and start again ".
