The coalition stages a “coup d’état”
Yesterday, the governing coalition entered the final phase of reshuffling-
“Coup d’état”
of its self-destruction and definitive disintegration. By adopting Nano’s political formula in the so-called “reconceptualization of the Executive”, the coalition showed that it was not built on the philosophy of inclusiveness and the desire to build the state. The role of the Socialist leadership in this coalition is indisputable, and that role has been accepted by the coalition’s other political forces.
