Growing support on all sides of the
political spectrum for a July 29 general election has put
premier-designate Carlo Cottarelli on standby, sources said
after he failed to present his ministerial team in a meeting
with President Sergio Mattarella Tuesday.
After the meeting,in which Cottarelli updated him on the
political situation, Mattarella decided to take time to weigh
how much support there is for an election before the end of
July.
This will entail a quick round of consultations involving
Cottarelli, sources said.
The PM-designate will then report back to Mattarella
Wednesday morning.
