A claim by the Report news show on
Rai State broadcaster that businessman Massimo Pessina got
contracts from an ENI-linked Kazakh-Italian consortium because
he had agreed to buy troubled Democratic Party (PD) organ
l'Unità was "madness", ex-premier and former PD leader Matteo
Renzi said Wednesday. "I think the PD has already filed
suit...these things only deserve a signature on a (libel) suit,"
he said on Italian TV. The PD on Tuesday said it would sue
Report and the Fatto Quotidiano newspaper, which also carried
the claims linked to the government-controlled energy giant, the
former Communist organ, and Pessina.
