MADRID, 21 Jul. (EUROPA PRESS) -
The president of Italy, Sergio Mattarella, has accepted this Thursday the resignation of the prime minister, Mario Draghi, a day after he failed again on a matter of confidence in the Senate.
The secretary general of the Italian Presidency, Ugo Zampetti, has indicated in a brief appearance before the press from the Quirinal Palace that Mattarella has received Draghi early in the day and has "taken note" of his resignation, the second in a week.
Thus, he explained that "the Government remains in office to manage current affairs" until a new Executive is formed.
