“The fears of citizens must be respected, born from seeing the violence of terrorism of Islamic origin, and within our societies: now serves as a serious answer from the State to ensure safety. ” Thus begins the interview that Sergio Mattarella has released the director of Tg1 Mario Orfeo back on reflections of the days past when he spoke of the “risk of an age of anxiety.” So the first responsibility of the institutions is to protect and reassure first with “the preventive activities that can not be seen but it is the most valuable to avoid that fear will prevail.” In the days when the emergence of terrorism becomes more acute Mattarella insists on one point: “If the terrorists were aware that reach the goal to frighten would have an incentive to continue.”
It is therefore necessary that the government also face action of public opinion information so that anxiety is not food. “Citizens must be aware of what you are doing. They are fielding a lot of actions. ” Although gaps remain particularly at European level in sharing information.
But this is not a religious war, on this issue Mattarella has very clear ideas that resemble those of Pope Francis. “It is a war in a different format, without borders. The fact that the vast majority of the victims are of the Islamic religion does not understand that this is a religious war. This terrorism, cynically, trying to use religion in the impossible hope of provoking a conflict between Muslims and Catholics, but this will not happen. “
Yesterday was also the eve of an important day, one in which – after the appeal of the center for French Muslim Faith – the faithful are invited to visit the churches in solidarity. A gesture that has deeply impressed the head of state. “The invitation of the French Islamic community, collected in Italy, because Muslims are to go in Christian churches in solidarity is very significant.” But what pressed Mattarella is to insist especially on what are the duties of the State and the protection of individual rights of each individual. “We can not and we must not distort the principles of our civilization, which are the result of history and, moreover, it would not help. What is needed is an effective anticipatory action, intelligence and police action perfectly compatible with the rights and freedom, overcoming old habits that impede information sharing and operational cooperation. ”
With yesterday’s interview with Tg1 Mattarella wanted to reassure citizens, informing them that the state is working to their safety. But yesterday was also the time when the Quirinale has breathed a sigh of relief at the outcome of the bank stress tests.
