While the totoministers are going crazy, for cultural heritage everything already seems to be written and we are probably moving toward a reappointment of Dario Franceschini. Barring any unlikely last-minute surprises.

There is a move toward a probable reappointment of Dario Franceschini in the role of minister of cultural heritage even in Mario Draghi’s government, assuming that the prime minister in charge manages to organize a new formation (but there seem to be fewer and fewer obstacles). According to the latest rumors, as the totoministers chase each other, it is possible that the nascent government will have some Conte II ministers: among them, Franceschini is in pole position for cultural heritage. No other names are currently circulating either.

Of course, last-minute surprises cannot be ruled out, but the situation suggests that the Collegio Romano will continue to belong to the Pd minister. Other ministers heading for reappointment seem to include Luciana Lamorgese for the interior and Lorenzo Guerini for defense. In any case, the possibility of a government that will have both technical and political figures is looming, on the model of the Ciampi government (1993-1994), which saw among its ranks several technicians (such as Giovanni Battista Conso for justice, Paolo Savona for industry, Paolo Baratta for foreign trade, Alberto Ronchey for cultural heritage) as well as some leading politicians (Mancino for the interior, Andreatta for foreign affairs, Russo Iervolino for education, Merloni for public works, Fabbri for defense).

If reappointed, Franceschini would continue the mandate he began on September 5, 2019 in the Conte bis government, his second(here a summary) as head of the culture ministry, following his first experience from 2014 to 2018 under the Renzi and Gentiloni governments.
