"They can arrest me when they want, but I'm not afraid. If they do it, a revolution will occur in Italy," he said.

The politician said that he would take efforts early parliamentary elections be held simultaneously with the elections to the European Parliament that are to take place on May 24th. He suggests that his campaign will attract at least 24 million Italians.

At the end of November this year, Berlusconi was expelled from the Senate on the basis of the law prohibiting any election run to those convicted to terms over two years. The 77-year-old politician acts as a defendant on several criminal cases.
