For now nothing moves, but the fate of Daniela Santanchè is at the center of political speculation. The prime minister Giorgia Meloni she has not yet expressed herself, but the rumors speak of an imminent request for a step back, with a decision that could arrive in the next few days, thus avoiding the risk of a motion of no confidence announced by the opposition.
The toto-names for replacement
Among the most cited names, that of stands out Gianluca Caramannadeputy of Fratelli d’Italia and head of the tourism department, currently advisor to Santanchè for institutional relations. However, being in his first legislature, he may not fully respond to the requested identikit. The possibility of a female figure or an external technician is also discussed, as has already happened with Alessandro Giuliappointed to replace Gennaro Sangiuliano.
The upcoming choices and the issues to be resolved
The reshuffle could coincide with the appointment of the replacement of Galeazzo Bignami at the Ministry of Infrastructure, where Matteo Salvini is waiting for a new deputy minister. In the meantime, the renewal of the parliamentary commissions is approaching, expected between February and March. The Budget, Defence, Justice and Culture commissions could undergo changes, even if some Fratelli d’Italia figures, such as Salvatore Deidda at the helm of the Transport commission, seem destined to be reconfirmed.
Territorial balances and undergovernment
We also discuss the need to rebalance territorial representation. After the farewell of Raffaele FittoApulian, replaced by Lombard Thomas Fotithe question of the inclusion of representatives from the South in the vacant positions of the sub-government remains open. However, it is not certain whether this rebalancing occurs at the Ministry of Infrastructure or elsewhere.
The picture remains in flux, with the majority committed to defining a strategy that guarantees stability and cohesion, avoiding new shocks.
