(ANSA) - Rome, November 12 - Premier Matteo Renzi and Silvio Berlusconi, the leader of the opposition centre-right Forza Italia (FI) party, on Wednesday reached a partial agreement on amending their Nazereno pact for a new election law. Wednesday’s meeting, which lasted only half an hour, had been billed as a do-or-die encounter as Renzi said the famous and controversial deal was creaking after the two leaders failed to agree on changes to the so-called Italicum bill last week. The Italicum is the result of a meeting in January, a month before Renzi became premier, at which the pair also agreed to an overhaul of Italy’s slow, costly political machinery.
