There is a need to accelerate, but also to play the cards of the new executive with “prudence”.

Starting with the composition of the team, including technical and political ministers.

Giorgia Meloni invites everyone not to let their imagination run wild in the game of toto-ministers, with the awareness that the real emergency for the prime minister in pectore is the energy crisis. 

The leader of FdI underlines that her duty is

not to waste time

: "let's try to understand when the consultations are - she tells reporters leaving Montecitorio - we must try to act quickly, there are too many important deadlines".

But there is also the need to

maintain the unity of the center-right coalition,

given the inevitable tensions over the choice of the team.

Meloni explains that "reasonably" the coalition will present itself together in front of President Mattarella on the day of the consultations.

And she also comments on his

relations with Prime Minister Mario Draghi

, the subject of more and more interpretations of the press.

"I read so many things, Meloni has become a Draghian. I think normal people trying to organize one

orderly transition respecting the institutions

do a normal thing, it's not that you make a mess ", he adds, answering questions from journalists.

And the "orderly transition" also includes the clarification with which party sources clarify that at

the European Council on 20 and 21 October, Mario Draghi will most likely still be

representing Italy and that there is no intention of creating " fractures "between the old and the new government. 

The refrain is that the team, when the time comes, will be ready and up to the challenges that await it (tomorrow the leader will make a point with the FdI executive).

Lega and Forza Italia repeat that the center-right executive will be "political", after the only idea circulated over the weekend of a prevalence of technicians, in key roles, had raised a crawl space among the allies.

Berlusconi would have submitted a shortlist of names he trusted

- including Bernini, Cattaneo and Barelli - explaining that he considers two absolutely essential: Antonio Tajani and, above all, Licia Ronzulli.

"This will be the first executive since 2008 elected by the people, the choices cannot be outsourced to the technicians", the senator of Forza Italia, Ronzulli, reiterated, among other things denying the hypothesis of being a candidate for the Ministry of Health: "Not there is my candidacy ".

While Matteo

Salvini has convened another Federal Council

, scheduled today, to "accelerate on the government team" and lock down a list of names, starting with him, among those that the League wants to sit in the Council of Ministers.

The allies want to have a say, they want to avoid finding themselves as happened with Draghi, with suffered and not chosen ministers of their party.

At the same time, however, Giorgia

Meloni does not want impositions

and claims that the government team does not have the imprint of the "Cencelli manual".

In short, on the one hand you go into pressing, on the other you brake.

For Giovanni Donzelli, FdI organization manager, there would be "a numerical problem" to be taken into account due to the cut in the number of parliamentarians. 

Giovanbattista Fazzolari (senator of FdI much listened to by the leader, in pole position for the role of undersecretary to the presidency of the Council), after seeing Meloni does not enter into the merits of the ministers' "bag" but

minimizes the tensions with the allies by

explaining that "there is no 'there is a controversy over the technicians "and not even with the president of Confindustria Carlo Bonomi who crushed the hypothesis of the flat tax and early retirement.

And yet Giorgia Meloni has long ago

decided that some key positions should be entrusted to technicians

because the executive profile will be the first test he will have to pass on the international scene.

This is why he continues to hope that Fabio Panetta, of the ECB board, will accept to cover the role of Minister of the Economy: it would be a not just visiting card and also the sign of a government that was born not to die a few months later.

In the complex game, however, the idea remains that of

arriving at the appointment of 13 October (when the Chambers will meet for the first time) with the agreement between the allies

on the complete package, presidencies of the Chambers and ministers, to be submitted obviously to scrutiny. of the President of the Republic. 

Meanwhile, Giorgia

Meloni maintains the low profile line

chosen after the vote.

"The defense of the Italian national interest, in an increasingly complex international context" is "the guiding star of the work and contacts of the FdI leader and her collaborators", according to party sources.

The expectation is high, time is running out.
