Fabrizio Cicchitto

Fabrizio Cicchitto (born 26 October 1940) is an Italian politician, whose career has followed a trajectory from radical socialism to centre-right reformism.

According to him, the DC exploited the Red Brigades' activities and the Aldo Moro case to cut off relations with the PCI.

Readmitted toward the end of the 1980s, he followed the policies of Bettino Craxi and held minor posts throughout the Mani pulite-Tangentopoli scandals that saw the disestablishment of most Italian political parties.

Cicchitto joined Silvio Berlusconi's centre-right party Forza Italia (FI), leading its social-democratic wing We Blue Reformers (NRB).

Cicchitto contributed to steps taken by Italy in its adoption of the European Monetary System and the Maastricht Treaty, and took part in debates over privatization in the country.
