Large number of visitors to the Museum of Peace to celebrate the 30th Anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall. Among the videos projected "Berlin: escape for freedom". A significant moment was the testimony of the President of the Fondazione Mediterraneo Michele Capasso, who was present in Berlin on 9 November 1989:
"I still have vividly in my mind that moment when I fervently hoped that the dream of the United States of the World - born from an intuition of the great Gustavo Rol in 1987 - and, in this context, of the United States of Europe and the Greater Mediterranean, could be realised. Since then, after symbolically hitting that Wall with a rudimentary hammer together with thousands of young people, my commitment has never stopped and will always be constant because peace does not need ways to be sought every time to achieve it: PEACE IS THE ONLY WAY to the salvation of humanity. The United States of Europe, enlarged to include Russia and Turkey, is an insurance policy for REAL PEACE; but today Europe is asleep, it does not understand its own history and the risk of a new war at the initiative of Russia is just around the corner".
