"I would like to remind you that our Penal Code, although partly reformed, is the one signed by Benito Mussolini and Victor Emmanuel III". Thus spoke Justice Minister Carlo Nordio, who adds, "It is a Fascist code in quotes, albeit a very well-written one". "Soon we will celebrate Liberation Day," Nordio stresses, "a holiday that celebrates antifascism, but we must remember that we still have a code signed by Mussolini and Vittorio Emanuele III, which by the way enjoys good health, while a code named after a hero of the Resistance like Vassalli has been demolished and misinterpreted, another paradox of our State”.
