FdI proposes ex-prosecutor Carlo Nordio for president

(ANSA) - ROME, JAN 24 - Giorgia Meloni, the leader of the opposition, right-wing Brothers of Italy (FdI) party, on Monday named former prosecutor Carlo Nordio as a possible candidate to be Italy's next president.
    "Many personalities that come from the area of the centre right would have the curriculum vitae and standing to hold the role of president," Meloni told a meeting of her party's 'grand electors' taking part in the presidential election.
    "Names like those of Marcello Pera, Letizia Moratti, Elisabetta Alberti Casellati, Giulio Tremonti, Franco Frattini are all authoritative.
    "I have asked for the roster to be extended to personalities who don't have a past in politics and that's why we have added the name of Carlo Nordio.
    "It seems hard to see any objections to him". (ANSA).
