ROME - The Ministers Andrea Ronchi and Ignazio La Russa posing with the neo-Nazis, as written by Paul Berizzi in his book "Black Bands" and reported on the Republic (la repubblica newspaper), have opened another front polemic between the government and opposition. The Pd sent a letter to Berlusconi to ask for explanations, while Antonio Di Pietro wants the premier report in Parliament. While the Minister La Russa replied, "The photo I published portrays a neo-fascist with a "carabiniere".

The views expressed are harsh. Members Emanuele Fiano Misiani and Antonio, along with vice-presidents of the Group of Pd in the House, Marina Sereni Gianclaudio and Bresse, ask questions later, as written, he saw with astonishment and dismay in an article appearing on photographs of Ministers Republic La Russa and Ronchi with representatives of the world of extremism and neo-Nazi neo-fascist Italian, as well as an alleged belonged to the world of drug dealing connected to n'drangheta ". "We would like to know - we read in the letter - if those hugs were random or fruit instead of attending a friendship and more consolidated."

"Why - read the letter - in this case, we would be faced with unacceptable amicizie authoritative representatives of the government with political representatives of a world of the extreme right extraparliamentary inclinations whose neo-fascist, racist and violent were more times covered by the news of recent years. "

"It would be impossible - say from the Pd - accept that a Minister of the Republic will photographed smiling next to the leader of an extreme right-wing circle whose magazine reported on the internet only a year ago a shameful cover where mocking the tragedy of the Shoah and extermination camp of Auschwitz. " "So for these reasons - the opposition Democrats contend - we expect denials by the parties concerned and by the President of the Council on Berlusconi persistent and intolerable old links that we thought finally delivered to the past."

For its part, Antonio Di Pietro also crush your hand. "How volevasi demonstrate: fascists and the fascists had remained. There is a return of fascism, whose representatives, it is now proven the test, sit too long in the institutions and the reappearance of those dark periods of our history," said the leader dell'Idv. 'It is incredible - he explains - what is happening in our country: you erase the memory, the democratic values to rehabilitate fascism and those groups who advocate apartheid and incitement to racial hatred. Berizzi in the book are names and surnames of comparing, of the sponsors of these dangerous characters who occupy institutional roles in the entire peninsula. And that these gentlemen are brought into the open air, tell the people whether they work to affirm the values plotted by our fathers or constituents to move a new fascism. Many backed to the protagonists of this movement undemocratic: ministers, parliamentarians, mayors, aldermen. "

"It is the same - concluded Di Pietro - who feed the contribution of this oil slick formed by pseudopartiti, whose symbols are Celtic crosses, bundles Littoria, swastika, flags of the Third Reich. Dell'Italia dei Valori We ask the President of the Council to come to Parliament to explain what happens and we are made full light on this murky affair involving institutional representatives and government. "

La Russa, however, the minister replied, "There's a shot of the scene, the person with which I was portrayed and which was published this morning by the Republic is not Crisafulli carabiniere but a man called Nicholas Giuliano. Now I expect apologies ".
