On Friday morning, the government’s candidate for president, Giorgia Meloni, and representatives of her right-wing party Fratelli d’Italia came to the Quirinal Palace, as shown in live footage. Ex-Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi with members of his Forza Italia and Matteo Salvini with politicians from his right-wing populist League were also in attendance.
Mattarella held talks on Thursday with the left-wing populist Five Star Movement, the Social Democrats and other smaller factions. Some party representatives then told journalists they expressed concern about an impending right-wing government against the 81-year-old. The head of state learns from the meetings where the parties attend. Finally, he appoints someone to form a government and swears in this person and their cabinet.
After the elections at the end of September, the right-wing parties, with Meloni as the winner, have an absolute majority in both houses of parliament. Observers expect Meloni to be tasked with forming a government and sworn into her cabinet this weekend. However, there was no official timetable for this on Friday morning.
