Rome : Italian prime minister-elect Silvio Berlusconi said on Wednesday he would help the European Union regain some of the influence in international affairs that he said it had lost since he was last in power.
Speaking on one of his own television channels after winning Sunday and Monday’s election, 71-year-old Berlusconi said the EU needed a “top leadership squad” to make it count in the world.
“There is a need to reconstruct a Europe that has a leading role in the Western world that can tackle with determination the problems facing the world,” said the conservative media mogul, who is expected to take office next month, according to a report of Reuters.
