By EUobserver
Roberto Gualtieri, a former economy minister and an ex-MEP for the centre-left Democratic Party, won 60 percent of the vote on Monday in Rome's mayoral election, ahead of his rival from the far-right Brothers of Italy, Enrico Michetti, who received 40 percent, Corriere della Sera writes. Gualtieri is succeeding Virginia Raggi, a politician with the populist Five Star Movement (M5S), as mayor.
