In the United Kingdom, a highly commented dismissal. Kwasi Kwarteng, Britain’s Chancellor of the Exchequer, has been removed from office, a month after being appointed. This ultraliberal was defending a poorly funded growth plan, which caused panic in the markets. Liz Truss has chosen the experienced Jeremy Hunt to replace Kwasi Kwarteng.

In Italy, the Chamber of Deputies has a new president. Lorenzo Fontana, a conservative Catholic, renowned for his anti-immigration positions, was nominated by his peers. A choice which reflects the result of the last legislative elections with the victory of a coalition of right-wing and far-right parties.

In Sweden, the right-wing parties have reached an agreement to form a coalition and govern. With the support of the extreme right. The new Prime Minister should be Ulf Kristersson. Their priorities are known: the fight against crime and immigration, as well as the revival of nuclear energy.
