Monti says 'governance' is needed for Italy (ANSA) - Rome, February 21 - Governance is needed for the "good of Italy," outgoing Premier Mario Monti said during the recording of the TV talk show Porta a Porta on Thursday.

"But I do not think that an exclusively left government would live up to the reforms that are absolutely necessary to solve the country's problems," Monti said.

Monti is currently running with a centrist coalition for parliament, but speculation has made many wonder whether Monti would ally with the centre left for a ruling majority after the February 24-25 elections.
