Italian PM Mario Draghi offers resignation

Italian Prime Minister Mario Draghi has tendered his resignation after the 5-Star movement withdrew its support in a parliamentary confidence vote. However, Italy's President, Sergio Mattarella, has rejected Draghi's resignation. "The President of the Republic did not accept the resignation and invited the Prime Minister to appear before Parliament to make communications, so that an assessment of the situation that has arisen as a result of the outcome of the session held today in the Senate of the Republic could be carried out in its proper forum," the statement said.
