April 25, Roberto Salis reads, moved, the letter from his daughter Ilaria: «I want Italy to be on the right side of history» – The video

«I’m here for Ilaria, my daughter is anti-fascist and this is at her house». This was said by Roberto Salis, father of the activist detained for eleven months in Hungary, from the stage of the demonstration organized in Rome by the ANPI on the occasion of the anniversary of the Liberation from Nazi-Fascism. «I’m here to represent her until she can’t come with her legs – continues Salis -. Ilaria has already spent April 25th in prison, the one in 2023, however we did not want to make her situation known for a series of reasons. This is the first April 25th that can be done and it must be the last with her in prison.” During the speech, Roberto Salis then read the words written by his daughter for April 25th: «I would like to read you a few lines that we managed to obtain from Ilaria and that she was very keen for me to read them on this occasion», he underlines. In her letter, the anti-fascist activist said she was «proud that in Italy we remember every year the expulsion of the Nazi-fascists thanks to the courageous struggle of partisans. From my cell – continues Ilaria – I ardently desire that my country every day shows itself worthy of its history, that today as in the past it wants to oppose the injustice of the world and take the right side of history. Happy April 25th.” In Rome during the Anpi procession, the chorus was finally sung: «Ilaria libera»: a tribute to the activist still detained in Hungarian prisons and now a candidate in the next European elections with the list of the Green Alliance and the Italian Left.
