ROMA (ITALPRESS) – “With all due respect to the minister, it really seems incredible. If we were a political subject, I would never have been in Am. My 35-year-old personal history in judiciary is how far away there can be from a political approach to these problems. If now in this particular historical moment, in defense of values that we have seen that the Italians largely share, we have taken this position is precisely linked to the exceptional situation and the defense of the Constitution on which we swore. Anm has in its statute the forecast of not being able to carry out any political activity, the idea of Anm as a political interlocutor really seems to me a completely unsustainable thesis.” This is said by Cesare Parodi, outgoing president of the National Magistrate Association, at 24 Mattino on Radio 24, thus responding to the statements of yesterday of the Minister Nordio on the Anm now become a political subject.
“This is the extraordinary occasion for the judiciary, not as someone had madly written to give the cards of the game to politics, but to demonstrate a capacity for revision, self-critical, improvement, which could also be decisive to extend the climate between the parties in the country – Parodi emphasized. We have an extraordinary opportunity to demonstrate the ability to regenerate ourselves for those things that are definitely not good. But it is not that all the problems are linked to us, structural reforms depend on the government, because we do not have the funds to hire administrative staff, nor to remake laws, but if it is self-regulation, to make a significant contribution towards greater transparency, greater clarity to recreate greater trust, it is time to do so.”.
“I believe that all of us, lawyers and magistrates included, have a moral obligation to seek strong collaboration with the government, paradoxically more than before. For some the government will not propose reforms of constitutional justice, we exploit this period of ontological wait to begin a constructive dialogue, they are not empty words, they are so many things to start, also a speech on the revision of the procedural norms that so many disputes have brought and that it is up to the government to review, better if with the opinion of the magistrates, even if the government does not have an obligation in this sense. Let us take this moment of natural stasis to give a signal to the citizens we are here to collaborate not only to collide us. I have confidence, I want to have confidence even if I am dimissionary,” he explained. “ANM far from assuming a political role, will have a constructive role if it will be allowed to try to solve the many problems that remain and that we have never denied even if they have accused us of this – he continues. We are the most aware in the world of these problems, but we felt that those of this reform were not the ideal tools to solve the problems of justice.”.
“I always speak from President Mattarella who suggested, if not imposed, rigor, reserve, discretion, respect for all parties – he emphasized Parodi answering a question on the festivities to the Procura di Napoli for the outcome of the referendum -. However, there has been a climate in this country linked to very heavy justice. We had absolutely instrumental and grotesque attacks like a pot that is boiling, then when the lid takes off the water out. This has happened, some manifestations over the lines that do not structurally belong to the Italian magistrates, it was a particular moment, a little cathartic but that we can not exploit to create a bad climate between the parts that need to dialogue and understand”.
