    CORRECTION: When we finalised this video yesterday evening for release this morning, Prime Minister Mario Draghi had announced his resignation. An hour or so later, it was reported that President Mattarella had in fact refused Draghi's resignation. This doesn't necessarily mean Draghi won't eventually resign, but it does mean that some of the information in this video is outdated. We apologise for the error, but unfortunately, there was no way of re-doing the video to include this information without delaying its release, so we decided to release the video as is with a comment explaining our error. Again, our apologies, and we hope the video was nonetheless both informative and enjoyable.

    More and more European countries are leaving the sanctions policy planned and orchestrated by their hegedemonic masters in Washington for its own self interests and at the expense of all European and NATO countries… EU blindly is following US orders and shooting themselves in the foot… The great Russian Federation must prolong the special military operations in Ukraine to allow the Europeans to enjoy and reap the full effects and rewards of their own self-imposed financial, economic and social (banned flights and movement of Russian people within the Shengen zone) sanctions… 🔥 🔥 🔥 🇺🇸 🇺🇸 🇺🇸 🇪🇺 🇪🇺 🇪🇺 🔥 🔥 🔥Wasn't it an american who once said, "democracy is a government of the people, by the people and for the people" but Brandon seems to think it is a government to divide the Peoples and to enrich himself, hunter and their immediate families at the expense of civil wars among americans… 🔥 🔥 🔥 🇺🇸 🇺🇸 🇺🇸

    Mario Draghi, created onlt resentment and tension amongst some political leaders, in his emergency coalition Gov. and he failed to give them adeguate answers to pressing questions. A "Draghi's policy agenda " was made known to exists, but nobody knows what it is about, except his closest allies..Draghi was obviously looking for a pretext to quit as PM of the coalition and so he di go away, or run away. sounds better. He never wanted the job anyway. He was after Mattarella's Italy's Head of State position, but ended up as PM instead.

    Former Italian president Francesco Cossiga called Draghi "a vile businessman" whose only real concern Is destroying italian economy and make it a convenient deal for mega-corporations to buy It at discount prices. So far facts proved Cossiga to be 100 per cent right in his assessment. Draghi is an evil man with no empathy towards his fellow human beings, you can see It in his dull and empty eyes. No matter the childish praises I've read in the comments, history Will judge Draghi for what he really Is.

    L'Italia è in collasso grazie a Mario Draghi che adesso come fanno i topi dopo che hanno rosicchiato tutta la nave La abbandona prima che affondi. Così la colpa del crack avrà il volto di qualcun altro non il suo che ha fatto tutto quello che doveva fare per distruggere e smontare la democrazia e la Costituzione italiana

    Since Italy had that little issue in the 20s-40s, the new Constitution made it very easy for the Parliament to discharge governments. It's something you don't appreciate until you absolutely do.

    We will probably end up in a right wing extremist, conservative, anti gay, anti immigrants government, let's hope it will last as short as possible and that it won't create too many problems.
