Talk: The Italian Drama - Tragedy for Europe on Quadriga on Deutsche Welle
An interesting video making comment on Berlusconi’s return to politics and the current political dramas in Italy.
'Does the resignation of Italian Prime Minister Mario Monti mean the end of the country's reform program? There have already been signs of a return to old ways. Former premier Silvio Berlusconi has announced he will stand for his old job in next year's elections. His chances of emerging victorious are slim, but many fear a fourth term in office could spell disaster for both Italy and the Euro.
