Mr Berlusconi, 73, started doodling as the leaders discussed giving more money to help poorer nations combat the effects of climate change.

At first, the other leaders thought he was making his own calculations with a view to taking part in the complex talks. Then they realised he was sketching women’s underwear. One source said the etchings were headed ‘Women’s knickers through the ages’.

The doodles are said to have included loin cloths used by Egyptian women, Victorian bloomers, French satin knickers, thongs and G-strings.

‘No one could believe it,’ said a source. ‘He was scribbling away and then sent round some jottings with women’s knickers on it. Some people were amused. Some were not.’

Mr Berlusconi has been plagued by allegations of sexual impropriety since April. His wife Veronica filed for divorce after his attendance at a girl’s 18th birthday party.

He was left with a bloody face and broken nose during the assault as he signed autographs at the end of a stormy political rally in Milan yesterday.

His attacker also knocked out two of his teeth. It was reported that he was wielding a miniature statue of Milan's Duomo, the city's gargoyled cathedral and symbol, however, he had been 'receiving medical attention for mental problems' for ten years.

Some people are born to stay in limelight and Italian Premier is certainly one of them.
