We are pleased to forward the documents with which we have concluded the meeting of the General Council on Sunday 22nd of November. We believe they can lay the foundation for the regained centrality of the Party and the convocation of a Congress capable of addressing the challenges of our times by the end of 2010.
We were also particularly pleased to endorse a special motion that Ms. Rebya Kadeer introduced through our General Council member Enver Can, concerning the latest developments of the Uyghurs, which we are sure will positively contribute to fostering their cause in Italy and the rest of Europe.
