We must remember that politics is more than a power game. The core of politics in my view is to serve our citizens, to serve our fellow human beings.
We have a good life when we manage to live with both satisfied and unsatisfied needs, when we are not obsessed by what is beyond our reach.
Villa Grande has in many ways symbolized an important, but less than pleasant, part of our history.
Human dignity is independent of national borders. We must always defend the interests of the poor and the persecuted in other countries.
If we dare to come closer to our fellow human beings, we will be able to see and understand them better.
