This is pure provocation. Before any kind of commentary, you need to calm down and be patient. Even in the narrowest sense, Riccardo Simonetti violates the religious beliefs of hundreds of millions of European citizens, this is blasphemy itself. Yesterday, I therefore asked the president of the European People's Party faction to condemn Simonetti's actions with dignity, but all the more decisively.

Seeing and knowing all this, but keeping calm, I wish everyone a peaceful Advent preparation for the celebration of the birth of Jesus Christ."
