“Wars have returned to cast their shadow over our days, now the wills for power and the purposes of domination reappear, manifesting in even unprecedented forms. Testimonies and consciences capable of transmitting experiences and values are more precious than ever. They are able to repel violence, hatred, and the contempt for respect for pluralism, for the identity of people.” These are the words of the President of the Republic Sergio Mattarella, in a message on the occasion of the anniversary of the Sant’Anna di Stazzema massacre.

“Remembering, besides being an act of responsibility – emphasized the Head of State – is an act of liberation that renews itself. The victory over Nazifascism opened the way to rebirth. Each generation must know that it belongs to each one to strengthen and defend civil achievements, which are not acquired once and for all. Their ethical premises, the reasons for commitment, must be renewed and reinforced,” added the Head of State.

Mattarella: “Sant’Anna di Stazzema symbol of the abyss into which wars make us fall”
“The Republic – Mattarella continued – feels the duty to remember the innocents – women, elderly, children – killed without any mercy in Sant’Anna and in the hamlets of Stazzema, outraging and burning their bodies, trampling every feeling of humanity. In this civil shrine, as in other places of pain, lie the roots of the Republic. On the morning of August 12, 1944 – he recalled – the SS units, with the complicity of the fascists, began the massacre. A symbol of the abyss into which wars can fall, erasing the dignity of man, making prevail the horror of annihilation. The community of Stazzema, after the pain, was able to regain trust, with Italy and Europe that redeemed with peace, freedom, democracy, with equal and universal rights, with progressive integration, the worst that history had produced,” concluded the Head of State.
