Italy faces delays in obtaining and absorbing Recovery and Resilience funding.
Mario Draghi’s ability to reform the Italian state was seen by Brussels as the fruit of a new European solidarity mechanism—a recovery plan financed by a common debt. These prospects have collapsed like a house of cards.
Pictures from the day’s events suggest the vast majority of the illegal migrants who managed to reach Italian soil were military-aged men.

If elections were held today, nearly half of Italy’s electorate would cast their ballots for one of Italy’s three center-right coalition parties.
In a statement, Prime Minister Mario Draghi said that “the national unity coalition that backed this government no longer exists.”
Now more than ever, Matteo Salvini is essential to the maintenance of the Draghi government.
