(ANSA) - Rome, March 21 - Violence against women is
intolerable, President Sergio Mattarella said on Wednesday.
Speaking after a spate of 'femicides', he said that often,
towards women, men perpetrate "behavior that results in undue
pressure and physical and moral violence".
He said "this distorted conception of women, present in many
parts of society, is intolerable for free persons".
Mattarella was speaking at a presentation of the candidates
for the David di Donatello awards, Italy's Oscars.
