Protests in Italy/ “La Repubblica”: Giorgia Meloni has warned allies that she may resign

Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni is considering the possibility of holding early parliamentary elections in Italy, despite the government and its allies continuing to officially declare that elections will be held at the end of the term. According to an article in the newspaper “La Repubblica,” during meetings with leaders of the governing coalition, Meloni raised the possibility of going to the president of the Republic next March, after a European Council summit expected to be held in Rome, to pave the way for early elections. According to sources cited by the newspaper, May 16 is one of the dates being considered for the elections, while another option is early June. The final date would depend on when Parliament was dissolved and on developments in the political crisis.
