Politics in brief: The exit from the Italian parliamentary elections was in favour of Romano Prodi and his centre-left party. This provoked high pressure among the opposition. Silvio Berlusconi appealed that if Prodi's party refuses to choose a "right" candidate for president, his actions will be "firm, absolute and total" against the future parliament, including non-parliamentary methods.

"If also this offer from us is rejected, we will count it not only as our right but as obligation to change our policy with firm, absolute and total opposition in all situations", claimed the Italian prime-minister quoted by the information agencies.

Berlusconi intends to present a list with two or three candidates, among which will be the present director of his bureau Gianni Leta.

Prodi's formation has a majority in both of the Parliament chambers and in the administrative spheres, which gives its members the right to choose their own candidate for a president.

12th and 13th of May will be the dates of the outcome. Let's see!
