"We ask that dividing issues be set aside, such as the ESM, and take note of the indisputability of a theme that has no majority, such as the ESM. These issues must be removed from the agenda, we focus on issues that have a common feeling , useful and necessary for citizens ".

"We are ready to face this challenge with all the forces that have made up the majority this year and a half to give the country a government in the shortest possible time, which is what we need".

"We would like to start from the 2021-2023 agenda, that is, that draft work in an advanced state resulting from the work table launched on November 5, for example the economic and social proposals for the post-pandemic period, which are in an advanced state, declining their direction and it is on what the government time schedule can be built taking into account that it has 24 months of perspective, ie the end of the legislature ".

"We ask all political forces to stand in this confrontation with the will and constructive spirit, which are essential to obtain results".

"This goal of building a legislative program must be in absolute harmony with the Italians' desire to look to the future with confidence. What we must make prevail is the common good of the country and, at this moment, this coincides with the need to have a government and an end-of-term program ".

There is the "need to hurry and give certainty and security to the country. We think it is possible to do so, the conditions exist to do so and the Democratic Party will do everything to achieve this goal".

"We see the occasion of the legislative pact as an opportunity not to return to pre-pandemic Italy but to rebuild this country. We will do everything to be loyal and consistent with this goal, we allow ourselves to make an appeal so that everyone they are because at this point you can't really go wrong. "

Zingaretti then indicated the reforms that the Democratic Party proposes to the allies for the end-of-term program: "Closure and implementation of the Sure and the Recovery Plan";

"tax reform in the name of selectivity and simplification";

"the reform of justice that combines constitutional guarantees and trial times";

"package of proportional institutional reforms on which there had already been ample convergence";

"the necessary reforms linked to active labor policies";

the "social reforms", from the "reconstruction of a health model", to schools, research and the university "; and" finally the theme of the tourism trade and the service sector, sectors hard hit by the pandemic ".

Renzi: Iv wants to discuss the contents.

Written document that removes an alibi

"The exploratory task entrusted to President Fico allows the outgoing majority to discuss the contents.

Thus the leader of Italia Viva Matteo Renzi after the interview with the President of the Chamber.

"It is not a crisis that arises from dislikes, but from responses to citizens. We are willing to do our part on a written document".

 "We do not need night meetings until dawn or amendments at night, but a shared method and a written document".

"The Constitution speaks of discipline and honor, today another word has appeared, loyalty: for us loyalty is saying what you say in public in private meetings. We are, we have been asking to talk about content for months. ready to work with discipline, honor and loyalty ".

Between the conclusion of the consultations, the working weekend and the beginning of the coming week, on the chessboard of the crisis the moves will be quick and, in addition to the formation of the Government, they will concern Parliament and institutions.

Tomorrow will be the turn of Autonomie, Maie and Europeans.
