We quote the valuable intervention of Senator Francesco Giacobbe during the inauguration of the second Conte government, here is his speech in the Senate Chamber during the debate on the confidence in the government.
Senator Francesco Giacobbe:
Mr President of the Council,
Allow me to congratulate you on your new government. You have a very good team of ministers and I am sure that the hard work ahead of you, indeed ahead of us, in the coming months will help to change Italy.
In this speech, I intend to elaborate on some of the issues you mentioned in your policy statements regarding Italian communities around the world.
These are the many young people who leave and have left Italy in the past to settle in a foreign country. I was one of these.
Today, it is almost unimaginable to think of the past without modern technologies that allow us to connect with our nearest and dearest in real time, communicated by letter and the information when it arrived was already old.
Despite these difficulties, distance has not made one forget, indeed has increased the love for loved ones, for one's homeland. This great love has contributed and continues to contribute to the development of Italy and silently and unconditionally continues binding millions of Italians around the world to Italy.
Remittances from young emigrants, for example, provided Italy with valuable foreign currency when it was much needed to finance economic development.

It is a great revolution and innovation. It is also and above all a very important support in the fight against the terrorist sect Boko Haram, which has been disrupting the lives of Cameroonians living in the Far North region for many good years. Borel Teguia , a young engineer of renewable energies knows the situation in the far north very well. And he is strong that he wanted at his level to contribute to the fight against this terrorist sect.
"After going to high school in the far north of Cameroon and constantly seeing many families forced to leave their homes because of the war, I told myself that something had to be done. Because there is nothing more horrible than war and nothing more important than a human life. That is how I started working on this miniature device that could fly, take images that could be viewed in real time and better monitor the borders of Cameroon. I wanted, so to speak, to give the Cameroonian sky an eye that monitors its borders,' he tells the microphone of our colleague Sputnik.
