Weekly Blog #5


A union of Silvio Berlusconi's power and center-left rivals established a new Italian government Saturday, a strange association that disregarded a two-month stalemate following questionable elections in the recession-mired country. The shocking accomplishment was pulled off by Enrico Letta, a center-left leader who will be confirmed in as leader along with the new Cabinet on Sunday at the presidential Quirinal Palace. The establishment of the alliance bested the latest political reply for Berlusconi, who was required to resign in 2011 as Italy slid deeper in to the eurozone's sovereign debt crisis.
