prime minister of Italy

In Italy, the President of the Council of Ministers (Italian: Presidente del Consiglio dei Ministri) is the country's prime minister or head of government. According to the formal Italian order of precedence, the position of President of the Council of Ministers is ceremonially the fourth-most-important Italian state office; however, in reality, the President of the Council of Ministers is the most powerful and thus truly most important person in the Italian government. This situation mirrors the position of the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom (who, as of 2007, is approximately 15th in the Order of Precedence) and indeed most other Prime Ministers.
