Paolo Gentiloni, Italy’s new prime minister, to form center-left government

Posted by | December 11, 2016 08:57 | Filed under: Planet

Paolo Gentiloni is Italy’s new prime minister following the resignation of Matteo Renzi.

Gentiloni, who served as foreign minister under Renzi, was asked by President Sergio Mattarella to form a new centre-left government that will guide Italy to elections due by February 2018.

A close ally of the outgoing premier, Gentiloni now has to put together his own government team ahead of a parliamentary approval vote expected on Wednesday.

In a brief statement, Gentiloni said there was an “urgent need for a fully functioning government” to address a series of pressing international, economic and social issues.

Chief among those is a looming crisis in the troubled banking sector and ongoing relief efforts after a series of deadly earthquakes between August and October.

    It seems that men waxing their eyebrows has become an epidemic.

    It is become intolerable.
