Italy’s anti-establishment 5-Star Movement and the far-right League party will meet with the head of state by Monday (21 May) to update him on their attempts to form a coalition government, League leader Matteo Salvini (pictured) said on Wednesday (16 May), writes Giuseppe Fonte.

Speaking to reporters in parliament, Salvini said the policy agenda the two parties have been working on for a week was “almost finished,” and he and 5-Star leader Luigi Di Maio would meet with President Sergio Mattarella “even before Monday”.

The two pre-election adversaries began negotiating a coalition deal last week, more than two months after an inconclusive March 4 election produced a hung parliament.
