(ANSA) - ROME, OCTOBER 26 - '' I am a man of the world and I understand the tactics, but I would urge Enrico Letta, whom I respect infinitely, and Carlo Calenda, whom I know less, to show greater respect for President Berlusconi. Today they both represented Silvio Berlusconi as the subject of a mockery by Salvini and Meloni about his candidacy for the Quirinale. First of all, Berlusconi does not let anyone make fun of him, on the contrary - when he wants to - he is the one who makes fun of himself, like all intelligent people capable of self-irony. ''.
Thus Gianfranco Rotondi replies to Letta and Calenda, for whom Berlusconi's candidacy would be only a ruse of the center-right leaders. (HANDLE).
