Italian President Sergio
Mattarella has called for the government crisis to be resolved
quickly, within days.
More consultations will be held on Tuesday and Wednesday.
"Only governments that pass a vote of confidence in the
parliament with agreement on a program to govern the country are
possible," the head of state said. "Otherwise elections will be
called."
On Friday afternoon there will be an initial meeting between
the 5-Star Movement (M5S) and the Democratic Party (PD).
M5S leaders met Thursday night to discuss strategy.
