The President of the Republic, Sergio Mattarella, affirmed that freedom and democracy cannot be taken for granted forever and that it is necessary to cultivate them also through “good politics”.
The statement is in the preface of a book in honor of the former president of the European Parliament David Sassoli, who passed away in early 2022, and who is currently editing Claudio Sardo.
“Democracy and freedom already have solid roots, but it would be a serious mistake to consider them ineradicable because today they seem guaranteed. Solidarity, respect for the environment, building peace. participation and able to make effective decisions for citizens”, writes the representative.
Mattarella also underlined the importance of the European Union, stating that the blockade represents “an essential and indispensable dimension for our democracy and for the freedom of every citizen”.
