Thursday, December 13, 2012. French President François Hollande joins droves of politicians eager to state their disapproval over Silvio Berlusconi. Whatever he does or will do, nobody likes it.
Mr
Holland, while speaking publicly in Brussels (see photo), declared he saw “very
low chance“ for the “chevalier” (Berlusconi is a Labour's
Knight, having been awarded the Order of Merit for Labour) of winning a term and replacing Mario Monti as head of Italian
government.

"I
don't take his words saying he abandoned his candidature seriously.
What he says one day is not necessarily true the day after,"
Hollande added, clearly stating his stance towards the Italian media
magnate “re-entering the field”. In this stance Hollande does not show any improvement in the relationship with Berlusconi, compared to Nicolas Sarkozy's days (watch the video on our YouTube's Berluschannel).
He is
just one of the political figures standing in line to show their
scorn for the disgraced former Italian prime minister and AC Milan president. As the
internal forces of his own party are busy fighting against each other (see our blog's post on the subject), the stand against Berlusconi seems to be a widespread sentiment
across Europe, where it's almost impossible to find a soul willing to
back the Italian media tycoon.
Barack
Obama clearly prefers Monti to him, Angela Merkel does not seem to take the Italian Silvio
seriously (how could she after he played hide and seek in Trieste's
Piazza dell'Unità d'Italia - Unity of Italy Square - back in
November 2008? Here's the footage of Italian TV news service). Not funny, might be thinking Silvio.

Joseph
Daul, member of the European People's Party (EPP, from which Silvio
Berlusconi nicked the idea of People of Liberty), reproached
Berlusconi attacks to Mario Monti, and allegedly also two-thirds of
Berlusconi's PdL (People of Liberty party) is against its creator,
starting from the group leader in European Parliament, Mario Mauro.
For some reasons only the women of Strasbourg's branch of
PdL seem to stay loyal to the bunga-bunga leader.
Giulio
Tremonti (previously economics minister in Berlusconi’s
government), stated (as reported by The Telegraph) that it was a scandal, that an unprecedented degree of interference in Italy’s sovereign
affairs was in progress. “Even the prime minister of Albania has
advised us to vote in a certain way,” he said, wearily.
