The Italian government will not extend the covid state of emergency when it expires on 31 March, premier Mario Draghi confirmed on Wednesday, pledging: "Our aim is to reopen everything, as soon as possible." The emergency legislation has granted authorities sweeping powers to tackle the covid pandemic swiftly, and has been extended several times since it was introduced on 31 January 2020.
