Prodi vows to govern for full term in Italy

Centre-left leader Romano Prodi said today he intends to govern Italy for the full five years of Parliament’s term, and said Premier Silvio Berlusconi’s refusal to acknowledge that Prodi won the elections is “not my problem, it is his.”

Prodi spoke to Sky TG24 TV in Bologna, where he lives, a day after an Italian appeals court certified the final votes – in Prodi’s favour – for the Senate, following Italy’s April 9-10 election.
