 "It's not easy what Andrea wanted me to do speaking here,

not only because I loved him but also because it's difficult to speak to a man who hated to be pitied and I think that's what suffered the most".


    So Prime Minister

Giorgia Meloni in a moving memory of Senator Andrea Augello

which she made in the basilica of S. Maria in Ara coeli in Rome, during the funeral of the Senator of the Brothers of Italy who passed away in recent days.


    "Andrea could not bear, as the disease progressed, not being able to physically walk tall and fight on the front lines as he always did. He was a courageous, capable and arrogant man with a Gascon bravado that made you smile even when you you found yourself an opponent and then he knew how to be relentless but also capable of extraordinary humanity and great irony". 

Andrea Augello, elected with the Brothers of Italy, historic exponent of the Lazio right has disappeared in recent days.

At the funeral with Giorgia Meloni also her sister Arianna.

Some government representatives were present, including ministers Francesco Lollobrigida, Andrea Abodi, Eugenia Roccella and undersecretaries Leo and Rauti, as well as numerous parliamentarians and the president of the Senate, Ignazio La Russa.

Among others also Francesco Storace, former governor of Lazio who in 2000 appointed Augello as budget assessor and Giovanni Malago', president of Coni.
