(Adnkronos) – “These are difficult days in the Middle East, in Europe, entire areas of the country have suddenly caught fire, we must do everything we can to avoid the risk” of the flames spreading “and you are part of what we can do , you are the moat, the sand barrier that helps keep the fire from progressing.” Giorgia Meloni said this, visiting the Italian military contingents in Shama. “When there is a fire the risk is always the same” is that the flames fly too quickly from one tree to another and that in the end the fire cannot be put out”, underlined the prime minister. According to Meloni ” peace is not built with good feelings and nice words, peace is above all deterrence, commitment is sacrifice. There cannot be peace if there is not also respect and the respect that Italy has managed to build in nations and territories like these”. And “a good part of the name that we have in contexts like this is built by the work that you do every day”. “Italy – adds the prime minister addressing the Italian soldiers – must be aware of what you guarantee with your sacrifices, because you don’t see your children grow up, you are not there during the holidays when the family gets together . It doesn’t sit there for your friends. You are not there for yours, your boyfriends, your wives, your husbands, you give up everything and you give up everything to build and guarantee that peace that many, especially at this moment, are filling their mouths with while sitting comfortably on the sofa of their home” “I am here above all to say thank you, to say thank you on behalf of Italy for having chosen to wear the uniform, thank you for having understood that wearing that uniform means knowing how to use your head and your heart, for having agreed to come all the way here in Lebanon, for decades a fundamental piece of the Unifil mission, in a land cradle of many civilisations, for a time a model of coexistence”. “Lebanon – he underlines – plays a fundamental role in the Middle East, you know this well”. “The day At Easter I will be with my family and you won’t. And so this is also why I am here, because if it is true that the homeland is a mother and it is true, then any mother who can do it, if she has a child who is far away, when the holidays arrive reaches him to tell him your family is there, your family is proud of you.” “And I am very happy to have the opportunity to have lunch with you today like all families do – she adds -. To remind us that we are all linked regardless of what our task is, regardless of what our role is, regardless of what our job is. We all work for the good name of our family.” —[email protected] (Web Info)
