Draghi, the former ECB chief-turned PM, will now work to ease the economic and health challenges gripping the country.
Milan, Italy – Weeks after a rebellion in the ruling coalition plunged Italy’s government into crisis, the former head of the European Central Bank, Mario Draghi, has been confirmed as the new prime minister. His main task? Leading Italy out of a year-long health emergency and economic crisis. Draghi’s cabinet includes 15 members from all major political parties – from the centre-left Democratic Party to the far-right League – and eight technocrats at the helm of ministries that are implementing Italy’s economic and social recovery plans.More Related News
