From Biden to Draghi 

One of the greatest threats to international stability, and to each of the countries that suffer from it, is populism, which has spread an enormous and damaging influence. The effects have increased to very serious levels with the arrival of Donald Trump in the White House. The perversion of the system for the personal benefit of a supposed leader who comes to politics using the democratic mechanisms of the system to then install himself at will and manipulate power for his own benefit. It is true that before Trump became President of the United States, other demagogic characters of very dubious moral character had managed to cajole a good part of the population of their country with juicy but unfeasible promises to fulfil and with the appropriate messages of the moment, regardless of basic principles and values for coexistence and the democratic system. One of those characters was the peculiar businessman Silvio Berlusconi in Italy with three periods as president of the Council of Ministers in 1994-1995; from 2001 to 2006; and from 2008 to 2011. President of Milan C.F., and of the media emporium Mediaset as platforms to launch his messages and win the votes of a part of society disgusted by the inefficiency and corruption of the traditional parties.

Italy's path to date is littered with dangerous populists and nationalists who, like Salvini, still aspire to regain power. For the time being, there is a technical solution with Mario Draghi to deal with the serious situation Italy is experiencing, the dimensions of which have forced almost everyone to show their support for this exit that no one doubts will last longer than expected and will end with the holding of elections. In the United States, citizens mobilised en masse, more than 81 million voters to support the Democrat Joe Biden, and to prevent Donald Trump, with more than 74 million votes, from remaining in the White House. The warnings of the system, the need to recover the principles and values of the system, the counterweights, the role of the media in the face of wild social networks, dialogue and multilateralism in international relations, both political and commercial and social, and the enormous growth of inequality as a lethal threat to peace and stability were key elements for a change of course in the main world power such as the United States with a president like Joe Biden, with a polite behaviour but firmly defending the interests. In Italy, Mario Draghi arrives as the saviour of the euro with a fundamental job for the European Union to try a country as complicated as Italy. Common sense is prevailing.
