My family had liberal positions.

The fact remains; chauvinism is prevailing.

I was very restless, but finally I found my way.

The individual couldn't find any attention in Italy.

I met the Radicals and we liked each other reciprocally.

My mother was a regular church-goer and was very tolerant.

I think nowadays economic liberties are an explosive issue.

I am positive that flexibility is a feminine characteristic.

A woman must combine the role of mother, wife and politician.

I mean to defend the rights of individuals in a liberal prospect.

Kosovo's destiny is clearly to join the European Union at some point.

Macedonia's handling of ethnic relations and other issues is encouraging.

We are aware of the strategic location of Kuwait, besides the stable region.

I was on leave from local and regional politics, as long as I was a Minister.

I should have worried about taking responsibilities for which I was not ready.

The EU should have consolidated its different presences and purposes in Kosovo earlier.

Women are clear-headed, they are more creative and for this reason, sometimes, also more fragile.

I am now concerned with women's issues in a different way: women from Afghanistan, from Cambodia.

Albania has to demonstrate that it is willing to be a reliable partner in the international community.

The two great cultural and political currents of Italy have always only been concerned with the masses.

Women movements would form among the factory workers, a great mobilisation that destroyed the old models.

Men don't have as many difficulties and are more supported to combine the different aspects of their life.

The knowledge of languages was very useful. I have a university degree in foreign languages and literature.

I was thrown into the Parliament right away. From 1976 to 1978 I was concerned with the abortion issue, later on with that of divorce.

Drafting a constitution is only the first step. The constitution has to be granted legitimacy by open discussion and a fair, representative referendum.

The speed of movement towards independence will depend on Kosovo demonstrating that it is capable of treating minorities well. We have not always seen that.

I thought there had to be something I could do because it seemed crazy that, in addition to the psychological tragedy each woman has to face, came also all the rest.

My mother's studies stopped with the third year of primary school, my father with the first. They taught me a deep sense of duty. But nobody was involved in politics in my family.

I support the recommendations made by the International Crisis Group. The primary responsibility is for Kosovo Albanians to demonstrate that their treatment of minorities is adequate.
