Uma questão de...cidadania

Partilho aqui uma petição que considero ser importante e que espero que também possam aderir.

Hi,

I just signed a petition ask Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi to reverse his terrible track record on extreme poverty and I hope that you'll do so too here:

On Wednesday, Berlusconi is hosting the G8 - a group which he has no credibility to lead.

While some countries are showing leadership, the G8 as a whole are behind on their promises, and Mr. Berlusconi is easily the worst of the group. He has no credibility to lead this meeting. To date, has delivered only 3% of his 2005 promise to Africa. While other countries are making aid increases in an effort to keep their word, he has cut aid.

Thanks.
