Almost 90-year-old today Napolitano at the beginning of 2013. Announced that due to the age goodbye to the days of the office of the president. Since then, more than two years, and Napolitano once again saved the government and reconciled feuding politicians.
In his youth he was a fascist, communist, then declared that in the ’70s began to change in the socialist, and today is called by Italians King George and treated as a guarantor of democracy. Although confidence in him over the past two years has slowed, it still compared to the rest of the Italian politicians he enjoys great respect among Italians. Generally emphasizes his commitment, a sense of responsibility for the state and contribute to the establishment and maintenance of the subsequent ruling coalition. It is called a patriot and a great statesman, who in the midst of a general criticism, it would not have been spared in recent years, the Italian state, saved the honor of Italy.
Born in 1925. In Naples, Giorgio Napolitano finished law at the university, then joined the Fascist University Groups (GUF), which of course at any occasions he reminds. The more that until recently the official website of the President of details on the GUF was vain to look for.
After the war he joined the Communist Party, where he has since 1953. Sat in parliament. In 1956. Supported the Soviet intervention in Hungary and wrote that “the Soviets rescued Hungary from chaos counter-revolution”. Intervention in Czechoslovakia in 1968. Already condemned and 70s began to veer to the right. He was still in the Communist Party, but more of a socialist than a hardcore communist.
And he after the collapse of the Soviet Union insisted on the transformation of the Italian Communist Party of Social Democracy. In 1996. Was minister of the interior, then chairman of the Chamber of Deputies, and since 2006. Presidential sat in a chair. From the beginning, perfectly passed the test of impartiality. For though he clearly stated views – the center-right Berlusconi, who, incidentally, was already prime minister, were outraged that the president elected former communist – has always been an arbitrator rather than a supporter of any party. On several occasions he even defended Berlusconi clenched his teeth and tried to objectively assess the situation.
He was the first president in the history of the country chosen for a second term. And just before his last inauguration, when Italy plunged into crisis, and the parliament for several weeks, the prime minister could not emerge in the media there were comments that the president had saved the dignity of old Italy. It was emphasized that its decision strengthened the duration of the position of the credibility of Italy, at that time almost universally perceived as completely so lost a country where no one over there is no longer anything. And only the president can still fix anything seriously.
About his role in Italian politics can be proved by the fact that from the beginning it was clear that Napolitano does not complete his second term, because after 7 years would be 95 years and as he says it already exceed the limits of ridicule. But today, just like two years ago, the Italian political scene is faced with the fact that there is no successor Napolitano.
Subsequent politicians asked about the candidate – refuse. Italian president does not want to be neither Romano Prodi, or proposed by the Italian media world-renowned conductor Riccardo Muti. Readiness reports only unsinkable Silvio Berlusconi, who – as befits him – uncritically presents that would be a good president of the country, so the hopes that it will support countrymen in his efforts.
Giorgio Napolitano, President of the oldest in Europe, resigned – Politics
