Silvio Berlusconi refuses to resign.
Ten days ago, the Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi has ruled out his resignation and was not concerned his conviction for child prostitution and abuse of power. "For love of country" he said then that I do not speak. I can only say one thing: I'm not at all worried. " He added that he thought of resigning but "end the legislature." But the delicate situation of the Prime Minister, who must face in the coming weeks, four different processes, was exacerbated by the leaking of the Milan prosecutors' questioning of Karima El Mahroug, Ruby "heartthrob" the Moroccan prostitute 18 who visited a half times the Arcore mansion, still a minor.
Karima told prosecutors that Berlusconi gave "an envelope containing 50,000 euros," the first night we went to Villa San Martino, 14 February 2010. "He took me aside and took me to a room where we were alone. He said my life would change and, while not explicitly told me sex was not difficult to understand that I was proposing to have sex with him. " At that time, according to Ruby, thought Berlusconi was 24 and that was an Egyptian, because that was what he had told "False." But a few weeks later, when he returned to Arcore "I learned that those who were with him, had access to a free house. And when I suggested putting my name, should tell the truth. Then I confessed I was younger and had no documents. To which Berlusconi replied: "You say to everyone that you are the niece of Mubarak and so can justify the resources put at your disposal."
prosecutors find that Ruby has not been in Villa San Martino only three times, as it claims, but many more, and after March, ie when Berlsuconi already knew he was a minor. Monitoring your phone shows that she was in Arcore 15 different nights, and Berlusconi spoke 67 times in 77 days. On those occasions, she went in Villa San Martino a long weekend, between 24 and 26 April, in which there was an illustrious guest: Vladimir Putin, Russian Prime Minister. The visit ended on 2 May, three weeks before Ruby was arrested in Milan accused of theft.
More than one million women have emerged in Italy and many others in 60 European cities, calling for the resignation of Italian Prime Minister for his sex scandals that minor. But Berlusconi has given no hint. "Women know that I have much appreciated them - said in an interview on Mattin 5, one of its television channels. I have always shown great care and respect. I am convinced that they have a march more than men. They were always better, smarter, are better prepared, more responsible and get to solve problems without many detours. For my part, I always try that all women feel special. " For him, women who demonstrated for their dignity after the scandal Ruby, are controlled by the opposition and judges. "I thought it was a pretext to support the theory judiciary. And this is a disgrace. It is a partisan mobilization of the left that fails to win an election. "
But in the demonstrations, there were no symbols or flags of any party and in all of them were supported not only from opposition political parties, but unions, artists, writers, media and even the Church. On Sunday, in its editorial, the director of Avvenire, the newspaper of the Italian Episcopal Conference, he wrote: "If you were a woman, I also participate in the demonstration today." And the newspaper L'Unità, a sponsor of the protests, headlined on its cover: "It's just the beginning", a slogan used in the May 68 French (ce n'est qu'un début).
