Italy has almost Eurosceptic government

Almost three months after the Italian parliamentary elections, Italy is likely to hear Monday who will be the prime minister of a new coalition cabinet.

The coalition is going to throw money because of its plans and also to reduce taxes, also called 'debt coalition' by critics. The two sides no longer want cuts, despite Italy already having a high government debt.

The two internally distributed parties have also reached agreement on a 58-page government program after difficult negotiations. Their implementation would cost more than EUR 100 billion. They finally agreed that an independent figure from outside their own ranks would be prime minister and not Di Maio or Salvini himself. Italian media call the 54-year-old professor and lawyer Giuseppe Conte.
