Atlantia cannot get involved in such a complex matter as the rescue of Alitalia, the infrastructure group CE Giovanni Castellucci said Thursday. “Our position has not change,” he said. When asked whether his comments meant the “no” to any involvement in the rescue of Alitalia was final, Castellucci said he could not add anything. Sources said Atlantia could decide to start formal talks with the government over the possibility of contributing to the rescue of the airlines in the hope of mending its relation with the ruling coalition after the deadly collapse in August of a bridge it operated.<br/>
