The first act of Forza Italia without Berlusconi: approve the report. The party owes the Cav. 90 million

“A presidency that was a duty because we approved the budget statement: due by law, but above all due to President Berlusconi because he has always taught us that even in difficult times we must go forward“, says Sestino Giacomoni of Forza Italia at the exit of the FI presidency committee. The committee met this afternoon around 13 to approve the 2022 report and ratify the latest appointments made by President Berlusconi regarding provincial and large city coordination In addition to Giacomoni, treasurer Alfredo Messina was also present, while the other representatives of the presidency participated via video link. “This year’s balance sheet resulted in a surplus of one million. Then President Berlusconi owes Forza Italia about 90 million euros“, Giacomoni recalled, “one more reason to thank him for how much he believed in Forza Italia”.

A choice that seemed unusual given that tomorrow there will be Silvio Berlusconi’s funeral in Milan and that the parliamentary work of the Chamber and Senate have been suspended for 7 days. “It was a duty that must be presented to the Chamber, but in addition to being due by law, for us it was due to Berlusconi who would have asked us to do it”, concludes Giacomoni.

“I heard it a week ago and it was projected to the future”, says Raffaele Nevi, deputy of FI, “he told me we have a government that is doing well, but we must be protagonists“. On the possible name of Antonio Tajani, historic Fi colonel and foreign minister, as the new leader of Forza Italia, he comments: “For now we are only talking about Berlusconi: about what he has done in this country and this gives us the strength and the determination to move forward”.
