"Silvio Berlusconi was a fighter, he was a man who was never self afraid to defend his convictions, and it was that courage and determination that made him one of the most influential men in the history of Italy, that allowed him to make real breakthroughs in the world of politics, communication, and business". These are the words of Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni in a video message on the passing of Silvio Berlusconi. "With him, Italy learned that it should never let limits be imposed on it, that it should never give up: with him we fought, won, lost many battles, and also because of him we will bring home the goals we set for ourselves. Goodbye Silvio".
