Minister Andrea Abodi Comments on the Acerbi-Jesus Case and the Fight Against Racism

“I hope that those who judged had all the information needed to judge and that Acerbi is at peace with his conscience,” said the Minister for Sport and Youth, Andrea Abodi, commenting on the Acerbi-Jesus case on the sidelines of the signing of the protocol between Sport e Salute and the Conference of Regions and Autonomous Provinces. “The verdict is the result of the assessments of what has been reported, although in other verdicts the technical device did not need certain proof to condemn, it is not a coincidence that in this case I said that I hope the information made available was sufficient for a judgement,” he added. Finally, on Napoli's decision not to join the campaigns to fight racism by the League, he concluded: “I understand the bitterness, but an effort must be made despite this to remain united in combating a phenomenon like racism.”
