Mr Gordievskij, we would like to ask you some questions about Mario Scaramella.

We can terminate immediately this conversation seeing as I can imagine the questions. Mario Scaramella is a filthy liar. Whatever he said about our conversations or our relation is false from the first to the last word. I never said Prodi was a KGB agent, nor have I ever asserted that he had been "cultivated" by Soviet intelligence. Just listen, only in Italy can credit be given to a psychiatric case like Scaramella. Should I say more?

One wonders what goes on inside the head of somebody like Scaramella.
