Additional quotes by Massimo D'Alema

I am in favor of bipolarism; I consider it a value. Despite all its limitations, it has brought about a change in the ruling class, which remains the most significant achievement of the Second Republic. But it has been a crude form of bipolarism, marked by the figure of Berlusconi, and today it needs to be rebuilt on European foundations.
