Billionaire conservative former prime minister Silvio Berlusconi is on track to become Italy's next leader after his center-left rival Walter Veltroni Monday conceded general election defeat.
A third election as prime minister vindicates the often controversial Italian politician, but this time, there's little euphoria among his supporters
Italians began voting Sunday in snap general elections that could bring the return of a familiar face in Italian politics: former Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi.
Italians will go to the polls Sunday and Monday for general elections that could bring the return of a familiar face in Italian politics: former Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi.
Viewpoint: Italy cannot fix its broken political system until it summons the anger and determination needed to fight the scourge of organized crime

With spumante and melodrama spilling out among legislators, Prime Minister Roman Prodi submits his resignation
Prime Minister Romano Prodi no longer has a working majority in the Italian Senate. Does it spell the end for him?

The mayor of Rome has said the Italian capital will not bid to host the 2016 Olympics due to the country's political division between left and right.
Lazio's Paolo Di Canio has defended his political views after meeting with Jewish survivors of Nazi death camps on Thursday.
For anyone who has ever visited Rome and witnessed first-hand the normal state of chaos that is synonymous with the capital, the orderliness and calm that fell on Rome following the death of Pope John Paul II and leading up to his funeral could hardly be believed.
Thousands of mourners, including many world leaders, will gather at the Vatican Friday to pay their final respects at the funeral Mass for Pope John Paul II.
In 2000, Pope John Paul II pondered whether the new millennium would mark the end of his pontificate and considered having his funeral in his Polish homeland, according to his spiritual testament, which the Vatican published Thursday.
Mourners by the thousands wound through the streets of Rome with the hope of seeing Pope John Paul II's body Wednesday, and late at night the Vatican prohibited any more people from joining the line.
