BRINDISI, JUN 16 – “It was a rewarding experience, not for my success, but because I succeeded in my aim: to make all the components feel involved and fully included in a team. I saw the State, the institutions, but the joy was to see the citizens participating in this work, and never making them feel like they were only recipients of prescriptions and prohibitions”. The prefect of Brindisi Luigi Carnevale told ANSA that he coordinated the G7 activities in the area which ended yesterday on the Fasano coast in Borgo Egnazia. In addition to the summit, the entire provincial territory in these days of the world summit was involved in the official dinner on the 13th at the Castello Svevo in Brindisi in the presence of the Head of State, Sergio Mattarella. “The entire territory proved to be up to the task. A mature territory. This – he added – is the legacy that the G7 leaves us from which we must start again aware that we can overcome even the difficult moment that Brindisi will have to face”. “I had the opportunity – reported the prefect – to represent certain topics in the waiting moments during the gala dinner with the President of the Republic: it was a pleasure to convey to him this desire for the city’s growth. I hope that even in my small way I was able to convey this message.” “I can allow myself to express some feelings because no one can tell me that I am looking for easy consensus. Even in the moments in which I could feel more exalted by the closeness with the great people of the Earth, I – explained Carnevale – did a memory exercise and had in my mind and eyes the looks of the workers that I had received a few days ago after some demonstrations of protest: I was trying to focus on this because I hoped and hope that all the work we have done can leave a positive signal for them too.” “I never forget that moments of joy are beautiful, but reality is sometimes harder. We must not forget – he concluded – those who are suffering at the moment”.
