00:00Signora Sassoli, carissima Alessandra, cari Livia e Giulio, thank you very much for asking me
00:26to join today. And many, many thanks to David's friends and colleagues who were putting this
00:34book together. You can imagine, as I read it, I could almost hear his voice again. David was a kind
00:45man, il presidente buono, as someone called him. And while he never lost his smile, David
00:56knew how to fight for what he believed in. He fought for social justice in the difficult
01:03months of pandemic. He fought for solidarity inside our union. He was even declared persona
01:11non grata by Russia because of his unequivocal stance for human rights.
01:26David was indeed kind and courageous, wise and audacious. And you couldn't choose a better
01:35title to sum up his life and his service to our union.
