 Dichiarazione dell'On. Maurizio Turco, Tesoriere del Partito radicale:Le parole ascoltate oggi rappresentano la logica e scontata conseguenza dell'aver negato ai cittadini italiani per quasi mezzo secolo le proposte radicali perché fossero loro e non il regime partitocratico a sceglierle o rifiutare.Quali altri risultati ci si poteva aspettare da un regime anticostituzionale, violatore seriale del diritto umano politico e sociale alla giustizia, della legalità costituzionale, delle proprie leggi e delle leggi internazionali? Oggi l'Italia, con la lunga storia radicale fatta di proposte di governo e lotte per evitarne la deriva sociale, economica, politica, antidemocratica e la loro e del loro leader contestuale negazione e censura è l'esempio più concreto e compiuto della deriva criminale di uno Stato. La denuncia del caso Italia e l'obiettivo del rispetto della legalità nazionale ed internazionale per il ripristino della democrazia sono obiettivi del Partito radicale che, a partire dall'Italia, rappresentano un prezioso contributo per l'affermazione del diritto e della democrazia ovunque.
