National Unity and Armed Forces Day

GFA3

“Armed Forces safeguarding our freedom” is the motto of Italy’s National Unity and Armed Forces Day.

“As Italy marks the 80th anniversary of the Italian Republic this year, 4 November offers us a further opportunity to reflect on the values of unity, freedom and democracy. These are hard-won achievements rooted in our history, which we have a responsibility to safeguard and pass on to future generations.” These are the words of Minister of Defence Guido Crosetto, on the occasion of National Unity and Armed Forces Day.

On 4 November, we pay tribute to all those who work tirelessly every day to safeguard security and stability, both at home and through missions abroad.
