The return of Berlusconi
Berlusconi's latest moves
"After dark, I won again." Maybe just him, the outsider entrepreneur, the undefeated Milan man and then the politician of change, the statesman, never considered such by his opponents, who however now pay homage to him, the already four times prime minister, who fell and rose again each time, the fighter for life, he could transform in the media into another of his many victories that of being discharged from the hospital after a month and a half.
Silvio Berlusconi's exit from the San Raffaele is expected for hours and monitored by a crowd of cameras like that of a man who is a symbol for the whole country, for those who support him but also for those who oppose him.
It's not just waiting for a party leader to leave the hospital. In the evening, back in Arcore, after 45 days, the Knight issues a note stating that this is another of his victories. It is not the formal note of a recovering leader, but that of one who in fact announces a new return to the field at 86 years of age.
Gianni Letta himself in recent days, leaving the San Raffaele to reporters, showing a folder, had said: “How are you? He's already given me work."
Berlusconi, who already from San Raffaele made two video messages for the FI convention on 5 and 6 May and for the administrative offices, has never really stopped working, even in the hospital, as soon as he came out of the emergency due to "very dangerous pneumonia" in the context of chronic leukemia. And the note that arrives in the evening from Arcore suggests that work, even with the necessary precautions, will be a fundamental medicine for his convalescence. Because his life is work. The blue leader writes: “Dear friends and dear friends, after 45 long days, I have finally returned home and my return has warmed the hearts of our large family. An incredible emotion, a great relief.
It was an agonizing and difficult time but after dark I won again. Thanks to God and to all of you who have never let me lack your closeness, your warmth and your affection, I have never felt alone and have continued to nourish hope and trust.
The nightmare is over and, after reading the many greeting messages received, I feel like thanking each of you who has decided to dedicate a loving thought to me.
Long live life, always!”. An optimistic message for his Forza Italia party, which welcomes him, starting with the coordinator Antonio Tajani, deputy prime minister and foreign minister, with a choral and excited "welcome back, president". Messages for the return of "Silvio" from Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, "We are waiting for you on the field for many battles" and from the deputy premier, leader of the League, owner of MIT, Matteo Salvini, "welcome back, great Silvio".
Blue jacket, white shirt, Berlusconi greets smiling as he leaves the hospital from behind the car window, sitting next to his companion, the blue deputy Marta Fascina. Return to Arcore. With the head already on the 2024 Europeans, passing through the administrative ballots on 28 and 29 May.
