Vannacci: “I don’t declare myself anti-fascist, no law requires me to do so”

"Fascism ended 100 years ago. Nobody demands to declare themselves anti-Napoleonic...."

ROME – “I have never defined myself as anti-fascist, I don’t think it is useful, it is not required by any rule, by any law“. The general says it in Naples, where he is presenting his book, “The world upside down”, Roberto Vannacci, candidate of the League in the European elections.

“Fascism ended 100 years ago – Vannacci’s reasoning with journalists -, one is not anti something that does not exist. The oath that both politicians and soldiers take does not require them to declare themselves anti-fascists, this is a declaration pretext that some people use to assign a quality certification of first class or second class citizens. Just as no one asks to declare themselves anti-Napoleonic because the Napoleonic age ended 200 years ago. I consider it instrumental to ask someone to declare themselves anti-fascist , it is a historical period concluded and finished”.
