"Mr. Prime Minister [Berlusconi], or rather Mr. President Videla, you are truly a model head of government Argentina. You have humiliated and continue to humiliate the Parliament every day with coups that violate every rule of parliamentary democracy. Just a few minutes ago, you promoted and carried out the latest provocative act promoting an anti-democratic drift, namely the appointment as president of the RAI Supervisory Commission of a person chosen by your majority. I say this to those listening live: this parliamentary majority has had the arrogance to choose even who should represent the opposition. This is typical behavior of Argentine dictatorships."
