(ANSA) - ROME, MAY 8 - Carlo Fuortes announced on Monday that
he was quitting as the CEO of State broadcaster Rai,
acknowledging that "the conditions no longer exist for me to
continue my work".
Rai has been effectively in a state of managerial deadlock for
some time, while Fuortes reportedly resisted pressure from the
government, which came to power last year, for him to leave the
company to make way for a new CEO.
"A political clash has been ongoing since the start of 2023
about the role I have and me as a person which contributes to
weakening Rai," Fuortes said.
"At same time I have seen that there is no longer the
constructive attitude within the board that there had been
before and is indispensable for the management of the top
Italian company in the culture sector". (ANSA).
