The forthcoming visit of President Lula in Italy comes at a particularly difficult time for the Italian economy and extremely positive for the Brazilian.
It 's very high expectations for the upcoming visit of President Lula in Italy. A visit
"state" as defined in the diplomatic jargon of official visits a head of state in a foreign country. The trip
Lula in Rome, in fact, falls into a very special moment and may represent a unique opportunity to revitalize relations between the two countries, especially in the economic and commercial matters.
A year and a half ago was the head of the Italian Government, Romano Prodi, to come to Brazil, and in some of us 'still alive, the encounter with the community' Italian San Paolo and the subsequent signing, in Brasilia, the a detailed memorandum of understanding consists of twenty-six articles, the document placed emphasis in its premise, the great and historical presence of the community 'Italian in Brazil and is structured around the main areas of development of bilateral relations, with particular emphasis on that energy and infrastructure.
of Prodi's visit was not an isolated event, is mentioned in the great boost that the Italian government was giving to relations with South America, after the previous five-year period led by center-right Berlusconi (2001-2006) marked by a little attention its relations with the continent. Today
Berlusconi and 'Head back to the Italian government and would be expected, especially in light of the Italian crisis and the strong growth in Brazil, a change log.
Hope, that ', and' that although the visit of Brazilian President in Italy and 'in some way the result of the great diplomatic work carried out by the then Foreign Minister D'Alema, Italy in 2008 knowing fully grasp the great opportunity 'consist of the next few days the Italian Lula.
The decision to visit - and of course in Rome - the city 'of Turin and Milan, and' indicative of the "cut" that the Brazilian government wants to give this trip: a strong impetus to economic relations and commercial interchange between the two countries , which - according to all observers - can go far beyond 'the current level (significant but not extraordinary).
It 'clear that we expect a new impetus to the institutional relationship between the two countries, and here we hope that Italy, contrary to what In recent months, should strongly support the entry of new emerging powers - Brazil in the lead - in the now old group of "G8", no more 'representative of the new geopolitical and geo-economic world.
The recent dramatic experience of Alitalia would then be taught to our country once and for all, that no one - and above all Italy, which has no major natural resources and energy - can 'live longer' annuity; above all, no one can 'base their growth and development on its own strength and their own history, even if it is an important country like Italy.
For too many years, Italy has enjoyed, in some ways, this position of rent, the location, the thousand-year history, the possession of much of the historical and cultural heritage of mankind 'seemed in itself' to ensure the "boot" a fortune and a perennial increasingly central role in the group of world powers.
Today it is no longer enough, 'and not' even more 'enough in itself the great driving force of the Italian system of small and medium-sized enterprises, the real protagonists of the "economic miracle" that in recent decades had pushed up our GDP .
Today, I repeat, we know that this is not enough '.
The story Alitalia confirmed some ancient vices of the "System Italy" and a certain fatalistic and narcissistic tendency to "go it alone, '" when the Neapolitan philosophy of "pulled forward" ...
Italy there would be' economically speaking, outside the euro, Europe, and this is widespread among Italians despite the contrary opinion, namely that the single European currency has hurt and not good for the country.
Italy there will be 'more', economically and demographically speaking, will not know if 'open with wisdom and intelligence in the world.
And in this effort, let us say, as Italians abroad are the Italians who are in the world that can make a difference. Both
integration policies in favor of the many foreigners who come every year within our borders, as the potential 'development and growth, which could be accentuated by the positive development of our great community' of Italian and Italian -descendants.
Unfortunately this does not seem to be embarked on the road by the Italian government to close and sometimes the repression of foreign immigration and the scant attention given to policies for the Italians in the world negatively characterized his early months of the new mandate Berlusconi. We believe that
in these values \u200b\u200bwill not give up and I say this because 'I am convinced it' Italy in the first place to need many millions of Italians abroad, more 'than the reverse.
past, we have said 'Sometimes, the item "costs" to "investment": the only way' will be possible to reverse a cultural trend, before the economic policy, which in recent months, 'which appeared almost irreversible.
President Lula's visit could be an important element and perhaps decisive for those who believe and carries these beliefs: they are, after all, the President of the country where he lives the most 'great community' of Italian-descended and one of the world economic powers that the more 'grows and develops in areas strategically interesting, if not complementary to the Italian economy.
good trip, President, and good luck ...!
