Each year, Liberation Day is celebrated all over Italy, with events and commemorations involving the whole country. This year marks the eightieth anniversary of that 25 April 1945, the day that marked the start of a rebirth for the Italian population.
This important anniversary has seen the event in Milan attended by the city’s mayor, Giuseppe Sala, the secretary general of the CGIL trade union, Maurizio Landini, the partisan Sandra Ghirelli and ANPI president, Gianfranco Pagliarulo. A day dedicated to the memory of those who fought for freedom, but also for remembering that all that has been achieved in these 80 years of peace is at risk if we do not strive for social justice.
