"If Salvo Lima hadn't died, I would have asked Parliament to arrest Andreotti. [...] In reality, I never had a relationship with Craxi. I was targeting the criminal environment surrounding Andreotti. [...] Andreotti's case was time-barred in 1980; it's not that he was acquitted. And on the other side there was the mayor, Vito Ciancimino, and Salvo Lima. So, I mean: that was the real power. [...] Mani Pulite was not stopped by politics: it was stopped by the judges. It's a story that needs to be rewritten sooner or later."
