New meaningful vote

On 12 March UK's lawmakers will vote a new meaningful vote: if Theresa May's deal were to pass, the UK would leave the EU with a deal.

On the contrary, if the new meaningful vote were to fail, MPs would vote on no deal on 13 March. And if, as expected, the UK parliament votes against leaving the EU without a deal, then there would be a third vote on whether to have a short delay to Brexit. Probably about three months. 

In this perspective, Labour  MPs want a new referendum, and other politicians in the UK think the same.

Chinese President Xi Jinping visits Italy later this month

Italy's Government is negotiating a preliminary deal to become part of China's "Belt and Road" infrastructure plan. It would be a non-binding initial framework, which will be signed when Chinese President Xi Jinping visits Italy on 22 and 23 March.

With the aim to link China by sea and land with South Asia, Central Asia, Middle East, Africa and Europe, the "Belt and Road"  initiative will boost trade and investments through an infrastructure network on the lines of the old silk road.
