Declaration of Giorgio Pagano, leader of Esperanto Radical Association
“After that the Italian Government had championed the cause of the Anglophone monopoly on patents against the oligopolistic Anglo – Franco – German choice, it is not surprising that the European Court of Justice rejected the appeal presented by Italy and Spain against the Council's decision, that authorized the cooperation in the area of unitary patent.
The pronouncement of the Court of Justice proves the linguistic regime that northern strong peoples want to impose to European southern countries like Italy and Spain.
A democratic federation of states can’t be built when in the Union linguistic and economic discrimination reigns supreme and undisturbed”. This is the comment of the leader of Esperanto Radical Association, Giorgio Pagano.
“The situation is really serious and compromised – continues the leader – if languages like Italian, the fourth most studied language in the world, and even Spanish, the language with most native speakers after Chinese, are relegated to a corner.
At this point there is no longer any doubt on the oligarchic way of the Union where, apparently gains hegemony and makes economic competition by excluding some peoples, their languages and making them mute and enslaved”.
The so much desired European integration, in the name of which the Court of Justice has legitimated a strengthened cooperation, can only be achieved through the adoption of the federal language, Esperanto, that can solve the problems of translation costs, including those related to the competitiveness of enterprises and companies which use the European Patent”, ends the radical leader.
