Roberto Formigoni (born 30 March 1947) is an Italian politician.

1976

In 1976, he founded the Popular Movement and was elected a deputy in both the European Parliament (with over 450,000 votes) and Italian Parliament.

He was also the vice-president of the European Parliament for five years and served as undersecretary of state for the Ministry of the Environment in the Italian government.

1990

In 1990, Formigoni garnered attention when he was involved in a mission to Iraq that successfully concluded with the freeing of some Italian technicians who were hostages of the local government.

He later took part in the oil-for-food programme for Iraq, buying 1,000,000 oil barrels (160,000 cubic metres).

The move sparked controversy and linked him to alleged bribe scandals.

Formigoni was re-elected in 2000 carrying over 62% of the approximately 3.5 million votes, and in 2005 with almost 54% of the approximately 2.8 million votes.

He defended himself, stating that the law was not in vigour when he was first directly elected in 2000, so he should be allowed a fourth mandate.

According to some scholars, his mandate could have been overturned by judges later on.

Formigoni was interrogated by Italian Court in Rome due the Propaganda Due (P2) Freemasonry group.
