The editorial staff of il Sole 24 Ore reiterates its full confidence in the work of the Consob and the milan Magistracy; remember, you have already done publicly, you have taken the distances already from years of decisions, at least, questionable in terms of profitability, while now it is in discussion, on all levels, the legitimacy. All the more so in a crucial moment such as this editorial – that every day is a call to do a newspaper in increasingly difficult conditions – back to reiterate the absolute necessity and urgency of choices of high profile, in total discontinuity with the past.”
