July 05, 2020 "The main road, we have all said it for some time, remains to give the word back to the Italians so that there may finally be a government that expresses the will of the voters, after almost ten years since our government was brought down by a conspiracy of Palazzo. However, I realize that the road to the elections is particularly difficult, both for the obvious resistance of the political class, and for objective reasons linked to the health and economic emergency. If therefore it was not possible to go to the polls in a short time, it would remain the problem of changing an objectively inadequate government and majority. " This was stated by the former Prime Minister, Silvio Berlusconi in an interview with 'Il Giornale'.

"I want to be very explicit: I - explains Berlusconi - do not believe that in this Parliament there are the conditions to create a government appropriate to the seriousness of the country's situation. If however many parliamentarians realized the need to put it before the personal interest or to party membership the collective good, if some political forces were available to create a different and better government than this, perhaps it would be appropriate to talk about it ".

"Between the hypothesis of holding the Conte government for another two or three years, with the Five Stars as 'reference shareholders' and that of having a different, more authoritative, more credible government in Europe and in the world, which makes a policy adequate to get out of the crisis, which is more in tune with the majority of Italians, I say that it is worth at least to think about it. The center-right could reason together - if ever there was a real possibility - and together decide how to behave ", he underlines Berlusconi again.

"Every attempt to divide us destined to fail"
"Every attempt to divide us is destined to fail, because beyond the different sensitivities we are united by mutual loyalty and a common valid project for Italy" explains the Italian leader. "I saw a beautiful square. Forza Italia, Lega and Fratelli d'Italia left different, but close in a very solid alliance. A relationship of friendship and affection binds me to Matteo Salvini and Giorgia Meloni: I thank them for having expressed their their proximity, "he adds.

"Something serious has happened, the Commission of Inquiry clarifies"
"We say that something serious has certainly happened and that deserves to be clarified, in the interest of all Italians and of the honest, correct, courageous judiciary itself, which is the great part of the judiciary and which does not deserve to be associated with the gravely incorrect behavior of some of its representatives, states Berlusconi after the revelation of the audio by Judge Amedeo Franco. The clarification must take place in the highest and most public institutional venue possible, a parliamentary commission of investigation, because not only me and my political part was hurt, representative democracy and the popular sovereignty underlying the Constitution were hurt "he continues.

"We asked for a commission of inquiry to clarify the matter". "You see, one of the champions of the worst justicialism, the mayor of Palermo Leoluca Orlando, claimed that 'suspicion is the antechamber of truth'. I reply in the words of Giovanni Falcone: 'Suspicion is the antechamber of Khomeinism'. Our guarantee culture prevents us from being like them: we do not use the weapon of insinuation, of slander, of gossip, of indisputable accusation against our opponents ", Berlusconi points out.
