The leaders of the main
centre-right parties agreed that they will run in a four-way
alliance in the March 4 general election in a meeting Sunday at
ex-premier's Silvio Berlusconi's home at Arcore, near Milan.
This means that a group of centrists will also feature in the
coalition, along with Berlusconi's Forza Italia, the League and
the Brothers of Italy (FdI) party, despite the reservations of
League leader Matteo Salvini.
FdI leader Giorgia Meloni also attended the meeting.
The centre-right alliance is ahead in the polls.
A meeting to thrash out a joint platform has been postponed
from Tuesday to Wednesday, the League said Monday.
This was due to organisational reasons, it said.
The meeting will start at 11:00 on Wednesday, League House
Whip Massimiliano Fedriga said.
