"Mr President, yesterday in Florence, an extremely serious event took place which has caused horror and anguish: an armed fifty year-old man opened fire on five citizens of Senegalese origin in two markets in Florence – two of these victims have died and three are now in a serious condition in hospital. The murderer then committed suicide. The man was a member of the racist and xenophobic far right, who wanted to kill people who were strangers to him, guilty only of having black skin. Florence is my city, and before being elected to the European Parliament I was mayor of Florence for ten years. Florence is a civilised and democratic city, with a gold medal for resistance to Nazi fascism. Yet this abominable racist crime took place in Florence, a demonstration of the fact that Nazi fascistic madness can appear anywhere and we must never think that it has been wholly eradicated. Mr President, I ask you to express the European Parliament’s grief and to repeat this House’s commitment to combating every kind of intolerance and racism and working to improve respect for the dignity and rights of all human beings."@en1
