ROME - Italian Premier Silvio Berlusconi is facing his first tests in parliament following two recent stinging electoral defeats and demands by his key coalition partner for an end to Italy's involvement in the military campaign against Libya.
Berlusconi's forces suffered electoral setbacks in local voting last month, and voters in a referendum last week overturned laws passed by his government to revive nuclear energy, privatize the water supply and help him avoid prosecution.
Berlusconi's partner, the Northern League, has issued several demands to guarantee its support of the government.
