Recalling the horrific pictures from Amatrice, Accumoli and Pescara del Tronto, Mr Schulz thanked the Italian civil protection, fire brigade, paramedics, local authorities and volunteers who strove to save lives, provide protection and to ensure primary care.
Houses, palaces and churches can and will be rebuilt, but the void left by the dead cannot be filled, acknowledged Mr Schulz, conveying Parliament’s sympathy to the victims, their families and friends.
