	William J. Clinton Foundation "Joint Press Conference with Italian Prime Minister"
		The Italian government's strong commitment to its domestic affairs is sped forward also by its awareness that the changes in the international arena following the end of the Cold War require it to play an operative role in the new set of common responsibilities of the largest industrialized economies of the Western world.
		So what the Prime Minister and I have recognized is that we have to do more to try to develop a political initiative that will enable not only the United States to withdraw, but for the United Nations to remain as long as is necessary, and in a more peaceful and constructive role.
		PRIME MINISTER CIAMPI: I have nothing to add to what President Clinton said, and I already said before what the Italian position was, which is to give a new political dimension which prevails over a U.N. intervention of Somalia.

		Prime Minister until the end of the war, Orlando headed the Italian contingent at the Paris Peace Conference in 1919.

		None of that was enough to satisfy the editors of L'Osservatore Romano, the official newspaper of the Vatican, who derided D'Alema as an "apparatchik of the former Communist Party" in the wake of his election.

	Resignation of Italian Prime Minister D'Alema threatens to topple government
		Following resignation of Italian Prime Minister Massimo D'Alema on Wednesday, April 19, President Carlo Azeglio Ciampi has initiated talks to see if a new centre-left government can be formed, or if a general election must be rapidly organised.
		He hoped it would be able to play the same role as other social democratic and Stalinist organisations that had ditched their old reformist policies and attempted to repackage the social and economic nostrums of the deeply unpopular right-wing parties and sell them to the working class.
		D'Alema said that his aim was to form a stable centre-left coalition and to abolish proportional representation and replace it with majority voting to weaken the influence of the minor parties that had always been able to play a role in government beyond their actual size.

		Unlike Bloomberg after his election victory, the Italian Prime Minister has refused to submit his vast holdings — which are valued at $12 billion and also include various publishing, insurance and real-estate enterprises — to the scrutiny of a binding conflict-of-interest watchdog agency.
		The task of choosing the five-member RAI board is in the hands of the president of the Italian Senate and speaker of the lower house of Parliament, both firm Berlusconi loyalists.
		The Prime Minister himself has little interest in having the state sell rai, which would not only swipe away his newfound influence at the public broadcaster, but could also bring on stiffer ratings competition from a potential newcomer.

		Imagine my surprise while I was surfing the Net this morning to find another wonderful indication some of "the powers that be" may indeed be truly understanding the extent to which the established health care paradigm is looting patients' pocketbooks and ruining their health with quick-fix "cures."
		Silvio Berlusconi, the prime minister of Italy, will soon send letters to 16 million families in his country, urging them to cut down the number of medicines they take for the sake of their own health and to reduce health care spending by the government.
		The Italian government also plans to ban pharmaceutical companies from giving lavish gifts to physicians, in a crackdown on medical spending in a country where drug sales amount to some $23 billion annually.
