Summary Italy finally forms new govt, a coalition of Silvio Berlusconi's forces and center-left rivals.
ROME (AP) - Italy finally has formed a new government, a coalition of Silvio Berlusconi s forces and center-left rivals who forged an unusual alliance to break a two-month stalemate following inconclusive elections.
Enrico Letta, a center-left leader, will be premier in the government, which marks the latest political comeback by Berlusconi.
The media mogul s conservative forces participation is crucial to the new government s viability.
President Giorgio Napolitano said Saturday the government will enjoy the support of both chambers of the heavily polarized Parliament.
Letta and his ministers, including Berlusconi s top political aide, will be sworn in Sunday.
