MILAN - Italy’s prime minister said on Sunday he expected to finalize talks over a new government by Wednesday, as the 5-Star Movement and Democratic Party were in intense discussions during the weekend to hammer out a deal on a common agenda and Cabinet posts.
In a sign that a deal on the program might be closer, the 5-Star Movement said later on Sunday its members were called on Tuesday between 0700 and 1600 GMT to give a green light to a potential coalition accord with PD through a web-based ballot on the movement’s internet platform, dubbed Rousseau. Stung by what it saw as betrayal and keen to avoid a return to the ballot box, the populist 5-Star has agreed to make an attempt to govern with center-left PD, which is in the process of rebuilding after a string of election defeats.
He said on Friday after talks with Conte that Italy’s next government must cut income taxes to boost consumption, relaunch investment and focus on health and education.The former prime minister and former PD leader, Matteo Renzi, to whom many party lawmakers owe their allegiance, was quoted in Il Sole business daily as saying: “We do politics thinking of a common good.
