5-Star Movement (M5S) bigwigs are
considering a bid to impeach President Sergio Mattarella after
he rejected Paolo Savona's nomination to be the new economy
minister, sources said Sunday.
The anti-establishment movement is referring to Article 90 of
the Constitution, the sources said.
This states that "the President is not responsible for the
actions performed in the exercise of his duties, except for high
treason and violation of the Constitution, for which the
President can be impeached by the Parliament in joint session,
with an absolute majority of its members".
