Italian parties fail to reach deal on government in 2nd round of talks

A second round of talks among Italy's president and political parties failed to produce a deal on the formation of a government, six weeks after inconclusive elections, according to a report from Dow Jones Newswire made available to EFE.


Italian President Sergio Mattarella said Friday, at the end of a day-and-a-half of talks with political leaders, he intends to wait for a few days before assessing how to break the stalemate.
