ROME - Italy is struggling to form its 67th government since World War Two. The fate of its latest political crisis will be determined by five politicians and a comedian, an eclectic group riven by personality clashes as well as deep political differences.
Salvini is often accused by critics of being a bully or even a “fascist,” but he himself was pummelled in parliament on Tuesday by his mild-mannered prime minister, who blamed him for putting personal ambition ahead of the country.An unheralded lawyer plucked from obscurity 14-months ago to lead the unlikely coalition of the League and the anti-establishment 5-Star Movement, the outgoing premier has risen in stature to become the country’s most popular politician, according to opinion polls.
Known for his reserved personality, Mattarella hails from the now-defunct Christian Democrat party which mastered the art of political compromise for 50 years after World War Two. However, the governor of the Lazio region has a key role in the crisis because he can make or break a deal with 5-Star, so long as he can carry his divided party with him.The 33-year-old 5-Star leader and deputy prime minister has been eclipsed by Salvini during the government with the League, with opinion polls indicating his party’s support has halved from the 33% it won at last year’s election.
