Rome, 12 May (LaPresse) – “After weeks of completely baseless rumours, in which I have been portrayed as the architect of phantom secret negotiations between Forza Italia and the centre-left, today’s article in La Stampa has been the classic straw that broke the camel’s back. I want to make this absolutely clear: I have had no contact whatsoever with representatives of the Democratic Party, and I have no meetings or discussions of this kind on my agenda. I am neither the architect nor the instigator of manoeuvres aimed at redefining alliances and political alignments, or even at influencing the election of the future President of the Republic. These are matters that fall exclusively within the remit of politics and political parties.” This statement was made by Marina Berlusconi in response to reports published today by the daily newspaper La Stampa, according to which the chairwoman of Fininvest and Mondadori had initiated discussions with the leadership of the PD with the help of Gianni Letta.
