The eldest son of the late Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi hinted that he could potentially follow his father’s footsteps and seek office one day.

“I’ve no plans to do that today, but I can’t rule it out in the future,” Pier Silvio Berlusconi said at a press event Tuesday near Milan. He currently is chief executive officer of Italy’s largest commercial broadcaster, MFE-MediaForEurope NV, a company founded by his father in the late 1970s.
