We welcome this article for its sagacity and probable realism’ “man who whispered to the powerful” (from the title of his latest book), recently to Verona (photo on the side, outside the Capitolare Library) for the presentation of Mauro Mazza's book “Bergoglio and prejudice”, where we were able to get to know him and collect some political anecdotes dating back to the Andreotti era. To understand each other, he is the one who wrote about the probable Lega-M5S government agreement three years ago

Prime Minister Conte accepts the assignment from Mattarella: "I will be the defender of the Italian people" But after a very long conversation at the Quirinale he bows to Europe and the list of ministers.
Dear director,
the iron League-5 Star pact also withstood the frenzied attack that a candidate for the Presidency of the Council had never suffered. A poisonous controversy on the part of those centers of power, and London in Washington, who couldn't stand a possible prime minister who didn't come from the usual circles of the radical chic left, nestled in the gardens of the Quirinale of Napolitano. The Five Star League alliance was a vulnerability that had to be eliminated at all costs. And there were many little hands that tried: from those who sent the draft of the anti-euro program to Lucia Annunziata, up to the one that armed the New York Times on the future prime minister's attendance at American universities. Conte's contested CV highlights the opposite: it is not a mask of Deaf but a transparent professor who wanted it, with meticulousness, put every little experience down on paper. Conte, as often happens, he will prove that he is not a King Travicello and these controversies will end up strengthening him. Anyone who knows him knows that he is a convinced pro-European, an Atlanticist line that is not justicialist and sensitive to the needs of the Catholic world. Entrusting him with the task, after a questionable management of the crisis, Mattaella was saved because he avoided early elections and did not give in to the mess between M5S and Pd. Above all, he did not bow to those powers who wanted an alliance between the parties that won the elections to never arise. And he will be able to advise on the choice of ministers, alongside the two leaders Di Maio and Salvini, of men of experience in the ministries who best represent us abroad. Mattarella will now only have to defend himself, as Francesco Cossiga did, by those at the Quirinale who don't like tenants who become too independent.
