Rome, September 11, 2016
Dear President
Lonnie R. Stephenson
IBEW
Dear Lonnie,
During this sad anniversary for all the American people, I would like to extend to all of our trade union friends, especially to Chris and the local union of New York, our heartfelt condolences of all FLAEI-CISL.
The ceremony in Padova in 2013 we organized together with the IBEW, represents one of the most beautiful and important moments of feeling in my life.
The world after that terrible September 11, 2001 has not been the same since.
But we must respond as free men and women, as a people and as labor representatives to defeat fundamentalism, authoritarianism and terrorism.
A strong personal embrace and from all of the FLAEI.
