Former Italian Prime Minister Arnaldo Forlani died in Rome on Thursday at the age of 97.

Local media reported on Friday that Forlani’s son, Alessandro, announced his father’s death.

Forlani, of the Christian Democracy (DC) party, was born in 1925 in the Adriatic port town of Pesaro.

He studied law and rose through the ranks of the DC.

He was party secretary for a time and held various ministerial posts, including minister of defence and foreign affairs minister.

Forlani was Italy’s prime minister from October 1980 to May 1981.

Forlani was one of the most powerful politicians in Italy from the 1960s to the 1990s. He was twice the head of Democrazia Cristiana (Christian Democracy).

Forlani is Italy’s third former prime minister to pass away in a little over a year. He follows Ciriaco De Mita and Silvio Berlusconi.
