00:00Withdrew support from the county government. And this is where we are. The markets actually like the economy could be in a better place. Was this your plan all along. Good morning. Good morning frankly. But I think that now for Italy we open a new page. We can write a new page because of course we had a very great class in the history of our institutions. Unfortunately we have a system in which it's normal to change every year a government. And that is absolutely crazy. But we we are in this condition because we don't. We did change our constitution in the past. Now the situation is clear. We have a great recession and terrible recession a devastating recession. We have at the same time a crisis in pandemic. And the third. We have a crisis in the schools in education because we have the country with the worst level of the number of these other school opened. So what means that we need to change after they go clean up the country's government. I think it's time to give the country in the very good ads. Mario Draghi is the best man to be prime minister. He saved Europe. He will save Italy. Matteo Renzi what are the chances first of all of Mario Draghi actually having a winning parliamentary majority. Absolutely. I think now is normal. There are some troubles seeing the political debate but I'm sure Mario Draghi will have a vote of confidence either not while probably the next week. And we'll be able to write a recovery plan. Two hundred nine billion for Italian economy. Who is the important decision of European Union. He will be able to help Europe in the vaccination campaign because Europe had a very great reaction in economy. But unfortunately in vaccination campaign Europe wasn't good. And Mario Draghi is not only a good Italian leader but there will be a very important European leader was and it will be a very important to appeal. And then I think from the next week we will have a new government with an unbelievable man the right man in the right place.
