political uncertainty in italy, prime minister mario draggy, loses the support of a key coalition partner. but his resignation is rejected. ah, i'm norton 10. this is out a 0 live from london. also coming up celebrations in sri lanka after the president tenders his resignation by email from singapore years president joe biden. and his ready prime minister yale up. he'd sign a declaration to prevent iran from acquiring nuclear weapons and russia stripes, at the heart of one of ukraine's largest cities, at least $22.00 civilians are killed. children are among the dead. ah no, we stopped in italy where the president has rejected the resignation of prime minister mario druggie. after one of his coalition partners refused to support

a confidence vote. he told his cabinet, he would step down after surviving the competence vote is coalition has been thrown into crisis and the fivestar movement refused to back a bill aimed at tackling the cost of living. adarine joyce's life from ferrara and northern italy. oh adam, he won the confidence boat. so why did you want to step down? well, lauren, this caps off a very chaotic political week, if not months in italy. that's because draggy was trying to make sure he had everyone on board going forward as italy continues to deal with several crisis. and one of the many members of this unity government, the 5 star movement, has been a falling apart and be becoming much more confrontational with doggy and recent weeks. so what he wanted to do is get them on board, have them vote for this competence vote, which also included a spending bill for aid and assistance at this point. independent mac that also included millions of euro's for an incinerator to be built in rome. a project that

the 5 star movement is completely against. they came to power several years ago being against a lot of spending projects because they said they were corrupt. so this gave conte, that proverbial leader at least in parliament of the 5 star movement. the former prime minister to set the conte an opportunity to chip away more at the power of media that i can say. we're not going to vote on this confidence vote. we're not saying we're leaving government, but we're not voting. and maybe we're not voting because it includes this incinerator that i wanted to take this up and not some brinkman's ship. he didn't get content board humidity wrote a resignation letter, which was immediately rejected by the president. so there's a lot of in fighting a lot of history here. that dynamic is very delicate, because draggy is seen by millions of italians as this steady hand. in this very tense moment. italy has had a lot of game since the pandemic, its economy is growing. now, earlier this year it was seen that it would be this european leader pulling the whole years and perhaps partially out of the pandemic and out of out of economic

doldrums. but now with a drought that it's facing here with the ongoing war and ukraine, there's a lot of uncertainty here. so it's not clear if i rejecting this letter, the president is going to bolster doggies government, in fact, giving him more power at this moment by backing him. or if it's just going to lead to several months of kind of political uncertainty before elections either later this year or early next year. lauren anatomy. as you suggest, the routing curtis should be under pressure for some time. what happens next? well, it'll be interesting to see come next week, wednesday the president has asked that i gave to appear in parliament and kind of give his vision for how he wants to continue and what he needs. it's not clear that he's going to come out strong and somehow try to rebuild his unity government. we have a lot of things going on in the background here. there's this rising center right movement of 2 parties for italy, or brothers of italy, and the, the league,

which is a long time conservative party. these parties together are leading in the polls. so if that i guess government falls in these parties aren't seen as making them fall, they'll come out powerful, they'll be able to win. perhaps the most seats, if election were held earlier, rather than later said they're kind of shocking for power. at the same time, the 5 star movement we've been discussing with it's liter, giuseppe, comp, in parliament. most of those people are out of a job whenever the election comes said they're not really sure of what's to come in . they're kind of tired of trying to cobble together enough votes to be important to drug. in fact, the movement, his splintered the current foreign minister, one of the leaders and founders and 5 star movement himself, has left the movement incited more with more institutional draggy. in recent days, so we have this moment of uncertainty, a lot of people looking forward to elections. they see the italy hasn't quite accomplished what it was hoping to under the raggy. and it's not clear if this, this man money that i get respected by european leaders as the former head of the

central bank of europe. and as someone who has steadied italy will be able to continue if or if he's just a lame duck at this point will be watching the next few days. what he says when he appears in parliament next week, and what other party say if they try to continue to chip widest power in push for early elections or not lorn adarine. thank you very much indeed. to lincoln, our president go to buy a roger pack sir, has finally submitted his resignation. after weeks of demonstrations, the newsletter celebrations in columbus. but the documents authenticity still needs to be legally verified that will take until friday, or pack size. now, in singapore, after fleeing to the movies on wednesday, under pressure pressure from mounting demonstrations against his rule. no fernandez isn't combo. after the entire days wait, the speaker's office has finally confirm the receipt of a letter containing the resignation of president go to albert roger boxer. now that

to the dollar crisis that this is countries facing, where it's on his knees and does not have money to buy food medicine and fuel. but basically, our president got arbitrage epoxy then saying into keeping with the contribution of process, he asked the people to work with whoever that is appointed by parliament. now for the protest is here at ground 0, you can probably hear some of the sound behind me. it's a reason for celebration, the 1st instance that they heard about this letter coming. we heard firecrackers going off, but it also means on the flip side of the coin, that prime minister on a vicar missing her, becomes acting president. as soon as that letter is confirmed as authentic, and that is something that the protesters have right along said they don't want. ah, yes, president joe biden says it's michael to well security that iran never has
