Italian President Sergio Mattarella delivered a keynote speech at Germany’s National Day of Mourning (Volkstrauertag), held on November 16, 2025. Addressing parliament in Berlin, Mattarella reflected on the enduring lesson of “never again”—the collective vow against hatred, war, and the repetition of history’s darkest moments, including the Holocaust. He warned that the tragedies of war and racism are resurfacing “today… in Kyiv and Gaza,” urging renewed commitment to peace, humanity, and European unity. Mattarella paid tribute to victims of all wars, acts of violence, persecution, and tyranny, and emphasized Europe’s historic responsibility to safeguard memory, dignity, and democracy.
