Italy Gets New Technocrat Government

Description:Mario Monti is sworn in as Italy's new prime minister, forming a new technocrat government, tasked with fixing the country's debt crisis. With Italy's financial woes threatening the entire Eurozone, President Giorgio Napolitano swore in the 16-member government, ending a political crisis facing a country on the brink of economic disaster. European marketwatchers are hoping Monti, a former European Commissioner, will bring stability to the country once dominated by the leadership of Berlusconi. (1:40)
