The November 6 next the current Chief of Staff of the Defense, General Claudio Graziano will assume the post of president of the Military Committee of the European Union - Eucm. A number of pawns will be removed from the Italian military organization. Most likely the substitute of General Graziano, according to the Sun 24 Ore, should be the current head of aeronautics Enzo Vecciarelli that would be substituted at the blue weapon by the general Alberto Rosso, current chief of staff of the defense minister Elisabetta Trenta.
Where this choice of government should occur, the number two of the defense staff, the air force general, must also be changed. Roberto Nordio, the head of the cabinet of the minister, General Alberto Rosso and hold the post of Deputy Secretary General of Defense, currently vacant.
In place of General Alberto Rosso, at the minister's office, there are two names in the lists, the army generals Luigi De Leverano and Giovanni Fungo, or an admiral of the navy.
The general Roberto Nordio would leave the post of deputy chief of the defense staff, to transfer it to the navy, since the Chief would be in the air force, to hold a position at the command Born in USA (SACT), or the position of Deputy Secretary General of Defense.
The major nodes, writes Marco Ludovico, are in the sector ofintelligence. Despite the two directors, Aise Alberto Manenti and Dis Alessandro Pansa received an extension of their mandate for a further year last April, the vice-president of the Council Matteo Salvini since the beginning of the legislature, more than anyone, has always supported an early renewal. Therefore, a very demanding week on this front is looming for Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte. It begins with the convocation between Tuesday evening and next Wednesday of the CISR (the inter-ministerial committee on intelligence). Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte must hear the committee, reads the law, before signing his decree appointing new directors. Having defined the names in agreement and in agreement with Salvini and the other Deputy Prime Minister Luigi Di Maio, informed the President of the Republic, Sergio Mattarella, Conte will communicate the chosen ones to the president of Copasir, the parliamentary committee on services, Lorenzo Guerini (Pd) .
The Quirinale, given the delay in the government's decisions, wanted to indicate, in an unofficial way, the line: “either we proceed immediately with the change or we expect the natural deadline in April 2019 of the two intelligence directors”.
According to qualified sources, the agreement on the names exists and is top secret. THE probable candidates they are the deputy directors Gianni Caravelli and Luciano Carta, today Aise, Vincenzo Delle Femmine (Aisi), Carmine Masiello and Enrico Savio at Dis.
However, it is not to be ignored that Alessandro Pansa (Dis) and above all Alberto Manenti (Aise) are following the work for the important conference on Libya which should be held in Palermo on 12 and 13 November next.
Una "strategic" conference for Italy, supported by the Americans and opposed by France and General Kalifa Haftar, who are advocating for early elections in Libya, already the next December 10.
The conference, for the first time, should be attended by all the actors on the field, including the heads of the numerous tribes and militias scattered around Libya. Before going to the elections, Italy and the international community are trying to change the Libyan institutional charter to allow safe, impartial and democratic elections.
