[Italy's president has asked the former head of
the European Central Bank, Mario Draghi,
to form a new government after the
previous coalition collapsed.
President Sergio Mattarella said Italy needed
a "high-profile government" to tackle
the Covid-19 pandemic and the worst
economic crisis in decades.
Politicians failed to agree a coalition
following the resignation of
Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte last week.
Mr Draghi will now have to put forward
an administration that leaders support.
He was summoned to Rome's historic
Quirinale Palace on Wednesday by
President Mattarella,
who gave Mr Draghi a mandate and said
he hoped he would break
the parliamentary stalemate.]
