D'Alema II Cabinet


The D'Alema II Cabinet was the cabinet of the government of Italy from 22 December 1999 to 26 April 2000.
Following the exit from the majority of the United Christian Democrats led by Rocco Buttiglione and of the Union for the Republic led by Francesco Cossiga, and in order to allow The Democrats to join the government, Massimo D'Alema resigned and formed a new government. The Italian Democratic Socialists, instead, did not participate to the formation of the cabinet and they decided to abstain in the vote of confidence to the new government.
The government stood in office for only 4 months: after the heavy defeat of The Olive Tree at the 2000 regional elections, D'Alema resigned for an "act of political sensitivity".
The task of forming a new government was entrusted to Giuliano Amato, already minister in the two D'Alema cabinets.
