Interview with Mrs. Moro


This, thirty years after the killing of Aldo Moro, is the first interview given by his wife Eleanor on those tragic moments. The outpouring of widow of Christian Democrat statesman was collected by Ferdinand Imposimato, judge, lecturer, Member of Parliament, which published it in volume "He had to die - Who Killed Aldo Moro. The judge said the investigation ".

Aldo Moro wrote: "Things will be clear, will be clear soon." He wrote in one of his most beautiful letters. It is a letter that I read often ...
"Do not do it because it's too sad ..."

When I re-read the statements you made to the Commission Moro, I was shocked. You say the facts and circumstances with precision and absolute truths. She denounces the inertia of power.
"Those people wanted to delete it because was uncomfortable. The people uncomfortable is on the side of justice and truth. And then there is to say that everyone was terribly frightened because he knew everything about everyone, and then felt them framed in the spotlight. Unfortunately they did not understand that Aldo would never hurt someone if it was not necessary for the common good ...».

In his testimony before the Committee on Moro and the Court of Assizes in Rome, she makes a statement that struck me. He says that the printing of the Red Brigades in Via Pio Foa was discovered several days before ...
"Sure."

you question: Why, if this printer had been detected, was not made any search? He adds, because the documents found in the apartment on Via Gradoli Brigades were not examined? Because no one has read them? Why were packed for so long? To you who said this?
"They were things that everyone knew. I knew them because I was in contact with the secretariat of Aldo. And they knew who had power in the government. You see, Aldo Moro was a man who was not afraid. He walked to his death calmly, as if he went for a walk. When a person you can not bribe or frighten, the only option is to delete it because it was too dangerous. Aldo known facts dating back ten, twenty years before. They were aware that they are the real prisoners. And there was one thing to do: kill him. Even so, knowing the deep honesty of Aldo Moro, were certain that he had not written the story of each one of them on pieces of paper delivered to a notary. "

Moro, after the incidents occurred in Via Savoia, in front of his study, said: "This is the dress rehearsal."
"Even men of his escort, who were good boys, they said:" We are the targets of a shooting. " They said all the time. So Moro and his guardians had the feeling of being under fire. It was a feeling that was also the keeper of our home. They were all supervised. "

But because there was no control by the state?
"Because the state wanted the death of Aldo Moro. Those who were in various positions of command wanted to eliminate him. " It can mean a few people? "I can not show anyone. Have not seen them operate. I am a Christian and I do not have certain proof that this is a rogue, I do not accuse. I pray to God for him. I pray that the Holy keep your hand on her head. "

However, in those days before the kidnapping was a perception of imminent danger.
"The men of his escort, and especially the driver, lived with the clear idea that someday they would be killed. Why Moro had to be killed. The bodyguards were sure to be targeted by any group, but they were not intimidated. They told me: "Madam, we are sure of the danger, but will not die alone, we are ready to sacrifice with him."

At one point in his hearing before the Commission Moro, use this expression: "Those poor people have told me that they had found the typography of the Red Brigades several days before the killing of Aldo Moro and had not been done." Who were these poor people?
"I think the drivers as well as its secretariat. Aldo people loved him. And all those who loved him have never ceased to be interested in his fate in the terrible days. You see, those who did kill I can not shake hands. If I meet them, greeting them from afar and flush away quickly. "

He can not give them a hand?
"I am not a Christian so holy. I am a simple Christian ...».

And this happens when there is the memorial?
"Yes. But it also happens when I meet them on the street. "

Then there are the ceremonies when she is forced to meet them?
"I never go to the ceremonies. I did not want to go when Aldo was alive, but I have to do as the wife of my husband. Let alone now. But the world is small. Meet the people when you least expect it. For example: I the funeral of a friend of mine of Catholic, and here I find them there. You see, after the death of my husband I started to study, from the Catholic point of view, the difficulty of forgiveness. Because one can say, I will forgive them. And I, deep down, I have forgiven them. But when I see them, across the road and go the other way. More than the death of my husband hurts me that he died an innocent man because of the evil intentions of four silly villains. If only they had been moderately intelligent would understand that you can never turn to power through crime. "

Aldo Moro was sacrificed for all.
"I told him, watch as you walk to your death. E he knew it very well. It was his habit of mind, his way of life. He was a man who loved merit, moral cleanliness, honesty of people, goodness. It is a fact that Aldo, came to power, it has not used to hurt someone. Continually falling under the evil eye: the man had stolen, that one was fooled, the more he got in trouble the whole family. He was always trying to fix, but then tried to put those who had made a mistake in a corner, so that he could not harm much. In a country like Italy, with the desire to have a career that all was not little. "
