Italy mustn't enter anxiety age-presiden (2)

(ANSA) - Rome, July 27 - President Sergio Mattarella said Italy must not be frozen by fear in a time of Islamist terrorism. "We must prevent fear from winning," Mattarella said at the so-called fan ceremony before parliament's summer recess.
    "We cannot allow our country to enter the age of anxiety. "This must be a time of responsibility and responsibility demands common commitment above divisions and greater cooperation between States against terrorism". The head of State described terrorism as a "challenge from the existential outskirts of our urban societies, in Europe, and at the same time, from the outskirts of the world".
    He also reiterated that fostering culture and values was the best way to combat violence.
