Anti-establishment 5-Star Movement
(M5S) leader Luigi Di Maio said Monday he would wait a few days
before stopping his government-formation overtures to rightwing
populist League leader Matteo Salvini because of the latter's
attachment to centre-right Forza Italia (FI) leader Silvio
Berlusconi. Speaking on Italian TV, Di Maio said he had "two
ovens" open, one involving the League and the other the
centre-left Democratic Party (PD). "I'll wait a few more days
and then I'll clsoe one of these ovens," said Di Maio. "Salvini
is taking on a historic responsibility in tying himself to
Berlusconi", he said.
