Cossiga, historian E.Marinella
Francesco Cossiga, depression and the Moro case. But also “love” for Margaret Thatcher
About Francesco Cossiga everything has been said and written. But now to tell the facts unpublished on the father, former President of the Republic and protagonist of many historical events and determinants of Italian political history, is the daughter Anna Maria. “His grandfather Francesco was freemason: thirty-three of the Scottish Rite. Not him: too Catholic. But he was proud of his grandfather.” While on Aldo Moro remembers that “father – explains Cossiga's daughter to Aldo Cazzullo in Il Corriere della Sera – was humanly desperate.

Anna Maria also addresses the theme of depression of the father: “He was bipolar. Himself he was talking about the little white man — joyful, cheerful — and the little black man, who saw everything as negative. It's one of the many things she passed on to me too, albeit in a lighter form. But she also taught me not to be ashamed of having psychological distress. “Then she got ill:”For the last year he had only seen black. It was as if she no longer wanted to live. A priest, a great friend even now, Don Claudio Papa, came to bring him communion. He fell into a comathen he woke up, it seemed he could to recover; instead she had one perforation of the intestine, and went away“.
Anna Maria also talks about the “loves” of her father: “There was – Cossiga's daughter reveals to Il Corriere – a woman who fascinated my father: Margaret Thatcher. He was gallant with her, he sent her flowers, they wrote to each other. They remained in contact even when she left the government. Of course, she was a political fascination: the iron lady. She also thought highly of it Kohl. Minus Mitterrand. Dad wasn't pro-French, he preferred the Anglo-Saxons. He was an Amerikano with the kappa“.
