Berlusconi eyes comeback, voices pride on his record

ROME: Italy's Silvio Berlusconi said on Sunday he wanted to resume the "path to government" and was "proud" of his record during the financial crisis, a day after resigning as prime minister.

Berlusconi said he was "proud of what we have managed to do in these three and a half years marked by an international crisis without precedents," in a letter sent to a conference of The Right, a small conservative party.

"I share your spirit and I hope to resume together the path to government," he said.
