It is an act of responsibility towards these little ones because I don’t accept the thought that there are children who are discriminated against as soon as they are born in their fundamental rights”.

«But there is a very serious legislative vacuum on the subject on which Parliament should legislate, but has not done so until now. We should put aside the ideological battle and think only of children” concluded the mayor.
