ROME (AP) — Italian Premier Mario Monti will make a speech to the nation saying whether he plans to run for election, a Cabinet minister said Sunday.
Monti is an economist who heads a non-elected government of technocrats that was appointed to put Italy’s economy on a more fiscally responsible path. He is now being urged by some politicians to seek election as the nation’s leader in a vote expected in February.
