Mario Draghi to resign as Italian prime minister after coalition withdraws support
CNN
Italian Prime Minister Mario Draghi said he would resign later Thursday after the 5-Star movement, the largest party in the coalition government, withdrew its support in a parliamentary confidence vote.
Despite the 5-Star boycott, Draghi's measures passed by 172 to 39. However, it left the government at real risk of collapse and could lead to an early election.
"I want to announce that this evening I will present my resignation to the President of the Republic," Draghi said in a statement.
