Strong condemnation expressed by Minister of Culture, Gennaro Sangiuliano: “Ho learned from news agencies news of what happened this afternoon at the Altare della Patria and I immediately telephoned the managers in charge of the site who will shortly send me a report. There desecration of the Altar of Patria constitutes a very serious actan offense to a symbolic place of national identity”.

Per Paula Churchdeputy of the Brothers of Italy and group leader in the Defense Committee in the Chamber, is “The banner is unacceptable and the smoke bombs lit at the Altare della Patria are shameful by a group of demonstrators who demanded the revocation of the 41 bis for Alfredo Cospito. It is an act that I condemn with all my strength. The Altare della Patria is the heart of Italy. There, millions of Italians pay homage to the Unknown Soldier and bow down. In front of a place with a very strong historical and civil value, one can do nothing but kneel down and show due respect”.
