"Mr President, by striking down a man like Professor Biagi, the Red Brigade terrorist assassins were seeking to silence a brave intellectual, an adviser to the Minister for Employment, Mr Maroni, whom they have not forgiven for having upheld the very principles affirmed at the recent European Council and for having placed his great abilities at the service of his country’s government in order to carry out a review of Article 18 and Italy’s employment legislation in general, which still includes points that stand in the way of the modernisation of our labour market, one of the most backward in Europe. The lesson we must learn is to realise, as this martyr to employment often pointed out, that only through truly reformist political action on employment legislation will it be possible to open up real areas for employment and hence for our children’s future in Italy and Europe. The Barcelona Council, however, leaves open and unresolved the great question of the future direction Europe will take in the economic and social field. We believe that only if Europe is thought out and constructed from the bottom upwards, from the territories and regions, only if it takes account of specific conditions and the different development models established over the decades, will it achieve its objective of striking a true, genuine balance between the modernisation of employment, productive development and social guarantees."@en1
