Mario Roatta (2 February 1887, Modena, Emilia-Romagna – 7 January 1968, Rome) was Benito Mussolini's Chief-of-Staff in Italian army and head of the Fascist Italy's Military Intelligence Service (Servizio Informazioni Militari). He is known to be on the list of Italian war criminals that Yugoslavia, Greece and Ethiopia requested an extradition of, but who never saw anything like Nuremberg trial, because the British government with the beginning of the Cold War saw in Pietro Badoglio, who was also on the list, a guarantee of an anti-communist post-war Italy.
