Fernando Tambroni Armaroli was an Italian politician, member of the Christian Democracy, who served as 36th prime minister from March to July 1960.
He also served as Minister of the Interior from July 1955 until February 1959, Minister of Budget and Treasury from February 1959 tu March 1960 and Minister of the Merchant Navy from August 1953 until July 1955.
Despite having started his political career as a reformist and supporter of centre-left economic policies, while in government he became a right-wing conservative politician, implementing law and order policies. Moreover, as Interior Minister, he was accused of having created his own secret police, to produce dossiers on his political opponents. His role as Prime Minister is best remembered for the riots which resulted from the possibility that he might look to the neo-fascist Italian Social Movement for support against the parliamentary left.
