Napolitano: Gentiloni hails 'extraordinary pro-European'

(ANSA) - ROME, SEP 24 - The late two-time former president Giorgio Napolitano was an "extraordinary pro-European" who believed firmly that Italy's strength lies in its position within Europe, European Commissioner for Economic Affairs and former Italian premier Paolo Gentiloni said on Sunday.
    "He was an extraordinary pro-European who always had the idea that Italy's development and strength would be possible within a European horizon. His was a great lesson," said Gentiloni after paying his respects in the chapel of rest at the Senate. (ANSA).
