"Absolutely nothing has changed in the centre-right's position," lower house deputy Renato Brunetta told Reuters. "Forza Italia will not give external support to a League and 5-Star government. On Tuesday the PD's interim leader, Maurizio Martina, said the party wanted to discuss concrete proposals with whoever got a mandate to form a government.If all efforts to break the stalemate fail, Mattarella would have to call new elections, probably in the autumn.
