"Many do not like Draghi and many would not vote for him anyway because his election would mean early elections, with immediate vote".

This is the scenario that Silvio Berlusconi would have painted to his loyalists on the eve of the center-right summit in view of the votes for the new President of the Republic.

"Forza Italia - Berlusconi would have also reiterated - does not feel bound to support any government without Draghi in Palazzo Chigi and, if so, it would leave the majority".

Words that obviously triggered the political controversy. Among the first to reply to the blue leader, Enrico Letta: “I think Berlusconi will deny those words, which have only been reported. If they were really said they would be very serious, but I'm sure they will be proven wrong. The timing is deeply wrong, "commented the Democratic Party secretary.

For the post-Mattarella, precisely on the name of Berlusconi, as is known, the political forces that make up the center-right are converging. But on this hypothesis Letta reaffirmed the tranchant line of his party. Or not even talking about it: “Berlusconi is a party leader, therefore he is divisive, like me, Salvini, Conte. A party leader is divisive by definition. "
