Secretary General of the Italian Presidency Ugo Zampetti confirmed Italian Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte's resignation in a statement made in Rome on Tuesday, and announced that consultations for a new government will begin on Wednesday.
"The President of the Republic took note of his resignation and invited the government to take care of the handling of current affairs," Zampetti said.
Last week Italian Interior Minister Matteo Salvini filed a motion of no-confidence against Conte in the hopes that it will lead to snap elections, following a disagreement with his coalition partners, the Five Star Movement (M5S). The Senate decided to have Conte address them first, during which he announced his resignation.
Following consultations, Italian President Sergio Mattarella will have to decide whether to go ahead with new elections or try and have a new government formed from existing parliamentary parties.
