Rome is to name a street or piazza
after postwar Neo-Fascist Italian Social Movement (MSI) leader
Giorgio Almirante, according to a motion passed by the city
council Thursday. The motion in favour of Almirante (1914-1988),
who founded the MSI and led it until a year before his death,
was put forward by the far-right Brothers of Italy (FdI) party.
FdI celebrated the approval of the motion as a "historic victory
for the Italian and Roman right". The motion garnered the
support of the right and the ruling anti-establishment 5-Star
Movement (M5S).
