    Hospital sources said the cause of the pains, which reportedly started early on Monday, is not yet known, although it could be a case of pericarditis, an inflammation of the pericardium, the fibrous sac surrounding the heart.
    Crosetto went to the emergency room of the San Carlo di Nancy hospital on his own stream, entering on foot, the sources said.
    The minister, a senior member of Premier Giorgia Meloni's right-wing Brothers of Italy (FdI) party, immediately had a coronarography and is being monitored, according to the sources.
