Italian Premier Enrico Letta's cross-party government has won the second of two confidence votes in Parliament.
The new government was confirmed Tuesday by the Senate by a vote of 33 in favor, 59 against and 18 abstentions, a day after it won confirmation by the lower house.
Letta's first order of business is a trip to Berlin, where he will meet later Tuesday with Chancellor Angela Merkel. One of his goals is to ease the pressure on Italy to pursue painful austerity measures.
