ROMA (ITALPRESS) – “The initiative to commemorate the fifth anniversary of the bloody disappearance of Ambassador Luca Attanasio, of the Carabiniere Scelto Vittorio Iacovacci and of the driver Mustapha Milambo recalls, with deep emotion, the most felt proximity of the Republic to the families of the victims and to the entire community. In the dramatic crisis scenario that the Democratic Republic of the Congo still acts, the memory of Ambassador Attanasio and his mission remains as exemplary. His dedication embodies the noble ideals of republican Italy that looks to the African continent with a spirit of cooperation and feelings of humanity. The value of the daily commitment of the servants of the Italian Republic who, with courage and sense of duty, operate in territories marked by instability and dangers, re-presents itself in the figure of Luca Attanasio and of those with him. The events promoted by the Municipality of Limbiate represent a just tribute to those who have fallen into the fulfillment of duty. In expressing gratitude to the organizers and to those present today, I am sure that the sacrifice of Ambassador Attanasio and of those who accompanied him will remain a living heritage of the collective memory of each one.” The President of the Republic, Sergio Mattarella, writes this in a message sent to the Mayor of the Municipality of Limbiate, Antonio Domenico Romeo, and to the family of Ambassador Luca Attanasio.
