After the ribbon-cutting, the ceremony moved to the Sala delle Colonne at the Luiss headquarters on Viale Pola, featuring speeches by Vincenzo Boccia, President of Confindustria and Luiss; Andrea Prencipe, the Rector; Paola Severino, Vice President of Luiss; Livia De Giovanni, President of the Master in Journalism and Multimedia Communication; and Gianni Riotta, the Director.   <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In addition to being the President of the European Parliament, Sassoli is a journalist, and even though he now holds a different role, the journalistic mindset is not easily lost. To understand the threats we must respond to, \u201cinformation is the first tool we have, an information that does not serve to support politics but to make us aware of what we have and also of what we can lose.\u201d \u201cThey want to divide us,\u201d he added. \u201cYesterday I addressed all the members of the European Parliament. Why do they want to divide us? Because we are different from others, and this difference is often not understood even by us.\u201d   <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cThere are many words,\u201d Sassoli continued, \u201cthat do not convey the idea well: \u2018war,\u2019 \u2018conflict\u2019 do not reflect what is happening. A few days ago, Mark Zuckerberg, the founder of Facebook, came to see me: we talked about the major attacks undermining our independence, which they want to compromise, and about threats based on very strong interests.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cIf we exclude the use of force in our relations with other nations, which we rule out a priori, we are left only with trying to regulate our dialogue with other actors through our rules, our laws, and our values\u2014the values of the European Union. Because a world without rules would be convenient for many, but it is not the one in which we want to live.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">From an article by Zeta Luiss, authored by Livia Paccari\u00e9, Mattia Giusto, Simone Di Gregorio, and Michele Antonelli. <\/span><\/i><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cInformation is the first tool to defend our freedoms.\u201d With these words, Sassoli addressed the students of the Master\u2019s program.
