The Embassador Pietro Benassi, current diplomatic adviser to the prime minister Giuseppe Conte, was appointed undersecretary with proxy for Secret services. The Council of Ministers convened in the afternoon by Conte and which ended around 11 p.m. has formalized the transfer of the attorney-in-fact who was also at the center of the attacks Matteo renzi. Benassi was one of the most credited names: Roman, 63 in June, was ambassador a Sedan until June 2018, before being called to Chigi Palace by Prime Minister Conte as his diplomatic adviser. With the transfer of power to the secret services, the impasse for other appointments, linked to the Internal intelligence “deputy directors”, external and Dis.
The profile – Benassi is a choice that Conte does not yield on one point: assigning the delegation to a personality of maximum confidence. A built-in trust two years and a half working at the Palazzo Chigi di Conte with his diplomatic adviser. Already in the M5s-Lega government that Benassi is asserting his Curriculum pro-European and Merkelian. Strong in your relationship with Angela Merkel, Benassi played a fundamental role when approaching Count the German Chancellor, cementing a relationship thanks to which Germany was solidly on the side of Italy in the difficult negotiations on the Recovery Fund in Brussels last summer. And it was the ambassador himself who still had a role as first floor in bringing in the prime minister to support the call most Ursula for the birth of the current European Comission directed by Von der leyen.
Before being ambassador to Berlin (from 2014 to 2018) and chief of staff at Farnesina, Benassi was ambassador to Tunisia, from 2009 to 2013, or in the turbulent months of the Arab Spring. His career began in the economic affairs department of Farnesina, and then stop at Cuba It’s in Warsaw. He was also head of the cabinet of chancellors Emma bonino me Federica Mogherini. With Conte, on the other hand, it is in Brussels where Benassi faces the dossier more delicate, from immigration to maneuver – hated by hawks – where they were thrown Basic income and quota 100. Until the last challenge of the next generation of the EU. Now it is his turn to lead one of the branches of government most attacked by the opposition and by Iv. Starting with the case of the secret mission in Italy of General counsel of the Trump administration William Barr for the case of Russiagate.
The political knot – Only at the beginning of the week, on the occasion of Vote of confidence requested from the ChambersConte announced to Parliament his intention to assign the delegation “to a person he trusts”. A decision that surprised me: really delegation to the secret services, until now in the hands of the prime minister, has been one of the reasons for the confrontation with Alive italy me Matteo renzi he has always asked that it be sold, despite the fact that the law states that the Prime Minister can decide not to sell it. Precisely during the end of the year press conference, Conte reiterated that “the 2007 law attributes to the Prime Minister political responsibility me legal about national security and I answer for that anyway. That use me or not appoint a trustworthy person. “According to the reconstructions of recent days, Conte’s gesture was made precisely with a view to relaxing and collaborating with all those who want to support the Conte government: if according to Renzi the premier has never wanted to mediate in Conte himself wanted to prove the opposite in Parliament. the need to speed up the transition. These are intense hours of dialogue and mediation to be able to enlarge the majority and this act could facilitate the reopening of the dialogue with some of the forces of Parliament. In addition, among the Prime Minister’s concerns is the vote on Wednesday, January 27, when she will vote on the report on the minister’s state of justice. Alfonso Bonafede. On that occasion, the executive may not have the number needed to protect the Keeper of the Seals and could definitely ruin an Accountant’s hopes.
The day – Today throughout the day, the executive has worked in search of the so-called “willing,” just when the center-right climbed the Cerro to ask for a return to the polls “because the majority is inconsistent.” At Palazzo Chigi, according to Ansa, the leader of the M5 group at Palazzo Madama met for the first time Ettore Licheri, then the senators Gianluca Perilli me Alessandra maiorino. At one point, the old M5s also left the seat of government. Raffaele Trano and Piera Aiello. Conte is aware that the turning point can be reached in two cases: either with the departure of other members of Forza Italia and IV or with the return in some way of the majority of the Renzians. And not by chance, that night Renzi, before bringing his groups back together, used, for the first time, opening words invoking the reopening of the discussions with the executive. A path that the premier has excluded for the moment, shielded by both the Pd and the M5. A different issue is the behavior of the parliamentarians of Italia viva, a true pawn capable of making a difference. As anticipated in these hours, work is being done to recover at least five people at Palazzo Madama. And among these could be the discontent with Italy alive that they wanted, it is the last reconstruction, coordinating the return to the Democratic Party and not returning at the same time. In Conte’s strategy, the goal is to train two parliamentary groups of “builders”. And there is another issue that Conte puts on the negotiating table: the election of the head of state. That is why we work with those who want to join a kind of anti-sovereign executive unit and with the Prime Minister himself. A “majority of Ursula” whose main task would be the implementation of the Recovery Plan. The last mediations will be played on this table, with one condition: to do it as quickly as possible to prevent the plan from falling under pressure from political forces.
