On July 2, 1990, tnetwork, broadcast an interview by journalist Ennio Remondino with Ibrahim Razin and Richardhe first program (Tg-1) of RAI Television, the Italian government-sponsored (^)
Brennecke, a former US intelligence agent who has become well known in connection with his
allegations concerning the 1980 October Surprise. Here Razin repeated the account of the message
from Gelli to Guarino and Bush just summarized. Brennecke added that US intelligence agencies
provided the P-2 lodge with funding in the amount of $10 mrunning, and destabilization. In the wake of this telecast, President Francesco Cossiga, theillion per month for gun-runni ng, drug-
psychologically unstable Italian chief of state, demanded that Prime Minister Giulio Andreotti
investigate these charges. Cossiga was indignant that both the US government and George Bush had
been accused of these heinous crimes. Andreotti's investigation was a superficial one and certainly
did not disprove any of the charges, leaving the matter hanging. [fn 34]
