The 'Rete Internazionale
Antifascista' (International Antifascist Network), which
includes members from Slovenia, Italy, and Croatia, has launched
a petition against Mussolini's honorary citizenship and the
reception of the X Mas in Gorizia. This was announced by the
Network, which was founded in December 2024 in Slovenia, "the
region where the first organised resistance against fascism in
Europe was born," according to a statement.
"The Municipality of Gorizia has refused to revoke Benito
Mussolini's honorary citizenship while preparing for the
European Capital of Culture 2025. This act, along with the
reception of Decima Mas veterans, contradicts the values of
European integration and intercultural dialogue that GO!2025
seeks to represent," the initiative's promoters state in the
online petition summary.
