Mattarella's meeting with Italians in Kenya

The tale of a historic evening full of u(ma)nity

16-03-2023 by Freddie del Curatolo

A meeting with Italians in Kenya in the sign of great humanity, which in this case does much more than rhyme with unity, a word that in itself contains all its letters and much of its meaning.
The historic evening in which, for the first time, a President of the Italian Republic met his compatriots living in the African country at the residence of the Italian Ambassador in Nairobi, confirmed once again Sergio Mattarella's ability to represent the good in our country.

"Courage, creativity, competence and heart," Ambassador Roberto Natali thus introduced the history and current affairs of Italians in Kenya, presenting to the Head of State one of the most diverse communities present in a foreign nation. From pioneers to tourism entrepreneurs, from cooperators to businessmen, from churchmen to representatives of international organisations. Professionals and freelancers, executives and restaurateurs. Each with stories worth telling and almost all deserving of a handshake from Italy's highest institutional authority.

Mattarella's decision to want to shake hands with each of the more than two hundred present confirmed the idea that many compatriots who do not live in Italy have of the man who decided to continue in office despite the fact that his retirement was sacrosanct and deserved. The account of this special evening in the video on our YouTube channel.
