Italy's parliament begins voting Monday for a new president, with Prime Minister Mario Draghi the favourite but far from guaranteed in a race that risks destabilising the government.

In this file photo taken on October 29, 2021 Italy’s Prime Minister, Mario Draghi stands at attention as he welcomes the Indian Prime Minister upon his arrival for their meeting at the Chigi palace in Rome. – Italy’s parliament starts voting on January 24, 2022 for a new president, a process that could take several days and, with Prime Minister Mario Draghi tipped for the job, risks destabilising the government.

“It would be dangerous for Italy in a difficult economic time… to reinvent a new government from scratch,” Salvini told reporters on Sunday. But many fear his departure as premier could trigger chaos as Italy recovers from the devastation of the coronavirus pandemic — or even a snap election, which none of the ruling parties want.

But Draghi has led a remarkably united government comprising almost all of Italy’s political parties since being appointed by Mattarella in February 2021.
