| Berlusconi complains of "subversive" campaign |
| 2009-06-14 |
| ROME (Reuters) - Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi said Saturday he was the victim of an orchestrated campaign of "subversion" over his relationship with an 18-year-old model and his use of state planes. The 72-year-old media tycoon, whose centre-right party comfortably won last weekend's local and European elections, told a meeting of business leaders that the campaign was aimed at replacing him with someone who had not been chosen by voters. Berlusconi, who owns three of Italy's seven national TV channels, also urged media not to give time to the leader of the opposition, who responded by denouncing intimidation. |
