Distinguished President, Distinguished Members My name is Ugo Rossi and I have been recently elected councillor of Trieste's City Council. Firstly, I would like to thank you for the opportunity of being here. I also represent the 3V Movement, an Italian National party that has in its main objectives the respect of the human rights and to support the minorities in their rights across the country and in the Free Territory of Trieste In my recent election campaign, I have immediately requested the implementation of all the rights included and promoted in the binding covenant of the UDHR.

Today, in this forum, I can finally denounce the State party, which, in violation of Article 5 of the International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination, since through its peripheral bodies, law enforcement agencies and legal apparatuses, has engaged in discriminating against and obstructing my person, obstructing and repen to not guarantee me the right to enjoy my political rights, in particular the right to participate in elections, solely because of my opinion shared with the Provisional Government of the Free Territory of Trieste, Zone A. After my election as Councillor of Trieste, my political life was subjected to further pressure and harassment of all kinds, including unfair trials for trivial reasons. These continuous reprisals, in my opinion, culminated in my being placed under house arrest for three months by the Court of Trieste, in addition to being banned from entering Zone a of the Free
