With Triumph, Berlusconi I never drink. Up Biden instead, it aims at us, also to rebuild that relationship between the United States and Europe that is very dear to the Cavaliere. In addition, it is Silvio’s version, Donald’s defeat and the assertion of his rival are proof that you win in the center. Where is Forza Italia, in the field of moderates. Berlusconi lived, through television, the American party as if he saw it closely and the result finds him quite optimistic about what will happen between the two shores of the ocean. And he confirms it in his conviction: a right-wing Trump is not the one capable of gathering, even here, the majority of consensus.

President, what do you think Joe Biden’s America will be like?
“What matters is that transatlantic relations are consolidated to face great challenges: from the protection of common commercial interests with China to the consolidation of NATO, from the fight against Islamic terrorism to peace in the Mediterranean and the East. Medium with the protection of the rights of Israel, from the defense of democracy and freedom in South American countries like Venezuela to the development of the African continent free from the interference of Beijing ”.
How will your relations and yours with the United States change?
«America is for us a great strategic ally, with whom we share values and interests. The closeness and gratitude towards the United States, which has always been the guarantor of freedom in the world, will never fail ”.
The Covid problem appears to have influenced the American affair. And here it has also become the center of all political questions. Could our government have come more prepared for this second phase?
“Yes, of course. For months I had warned, on every possible occasion, of the risk of a second wave with consequences even more serious than the first. It was necessary and necessary to work to adapt health structures, build departments and intensive care units of the Covid, prepare a serious and detailed follow-up, train new personnel. I still do not understand how you can refuse to use the funds of the Month that would serve precisely this purpose “.
If there had been a center-right government, what would it have done differently and better than the Conte government?
«The center-right would have acted differently, but this is not the moment for controversy. It’s time to join forces looking to the future instead of the past. We must think about saving Italians first from the disease and then from the disastrous economic consequences of what is happening. This means, for example, immediate compensation to all those who have had to close their business and have lost their jobs.
Has the Regions been given too much power and now Title V of the Constitution that allows it to be modified?
“The problem of the State-Regions relationship certainly exists. But today it is wrong to invoke this issue to devalue the great work that many regions have done to face an unprecedented emergency.
Do we need a government of national unity now?
“National unity must exist around the institutions. A government of national unity is neither possible nor desirable. Instead, what is needed is a concerted effort by all political forces, but also by the rest of the country’s ruling class, from business to culture, to get out of this situation.
Do you agree with the use of squares? Shouldn’t moderates avoid them?
“Since we do not promote any street demonstrations, I say however that we must distinguish. I fully understand the merchants who take to the streets to denounce the dramatic situation in which many of them find themselves. I strongly condemn those who use the square violently, those who vandalize by exploiting discontent, those who attack the forces of order or the property of citizens. This cannot be tolerated and must be reacted with the utmost firmness.
Have you always been in favor of more powers and more resources for Rome? Isn’t this the time to fight?
«It is an ancient battle of Forza Italia, strongly supported by Antonio Tajani and by our Roman MPs. Actually, there is already a law, it was promulgated in 2009 by our government, and it provides a series of special powers for Roma Capitale. It would be enough to apply it and that depends on the Government, the Region and the Municipality. In this legislature Forza Italia also proposed a constitutional law, first signed by Barelli, to assign Rome a particular status, similar to that of the great European capitals, London, Paris, Berlin.
The first project you would do for the relaunch of the capital?
“Difficult to answer: Rome is perhaps the most beautiful, best known and most loved city in the world, but it is burdened by immense problems. Even mundane problems like potholes and garbage collection seem insoluble. Then there is the big issue of neighborhoods: Rome is not just the historic center, on which the focus is. There are large areas of the city abandoned. The suburbs, where hundreds of thousands of Romans live, deserve a special remodel. Security and the fight against drug trafficking must become a priority. Also for the government. The image of Rome is the image of Italy. And then we have to find a solution to the huge debt problem. But this is like always. Rome deserves much more: I wish there were someone capable of flying high, of having a vision, a project, a dream. Who knows how to understand the potential this city has in the world and who knows and wants to collect the message that comes from its history and relaunch its face and image.
There is talk of the possibility of postponing -by Covid- the spring municipal elections. Both in Milan and Rome. What you think?
“Postponement of elections is always a serious matter in a democracy. I really hope that between now and next spring the sanitary conditions will allow us to vote safely.
The center-right would like to send Berlusconi to the Cerro. Center-left moderates could support him. Is Quirinale a possible dream for you?
“The Quirinale is very busy and will be for some time: discussing it today is also disrespectful to President Mattarella.”
