destroyed by a massive earthquake in April and many people still have to live in tents:
Originally, the summit was supposed to be heldon an italian island, but Berlusconi wanted
L'Aquila to host the summit in order to draw
everybody's attention to it and thus get more
people to donate more money and see the
necessity of help.
But not everybody is happy about this decision. Especially the people who have lost everything think that this is the wrong way. Doesn't the summit cost too much money that should rather be invested in the building of houses and infrastructure etc?
I understand this opinion and I also wouldn't want to have all these politicians and journalists wandering around and looking at my miserable living conditions...
So I think it it absolutely justified to be sceptical about the movement of the G8 venue to L'Aquila.
