- I am experiencing this period with great personal difficulty. I am seen as the one who supports weapons, the one who wants war. There is this strange idea that there is a country we don't care about, which is bothering us. That by being at peace, it is forcing us to do things we shouldn't do, that it is that country's fault if inflation rises. That country has been invaded.

No one has anything against the Russian people, there is no war between Italy, Europe, NATO, and the Russian people: there is an international coalition that is helping a country that has been attacked. We must do this, and we are doing it to prevent a crisis that began in a crazy way from exploding.
