By Imam Yahya Pallavicini, *Ramadan Karim From Italy* - CO.RE.IS [Islamic Religious Community]- Milan, ItalyTuesday, August 10, 2010
Last month representatives from the Christian, Jewish, Muslim religions as well as from the Sikh and Hindu communities met in Brussels on the invitation of President José Manuel Barroso.
The meeting was co-chaired by Jerzy Buzek, President of the European Parliament and Herman van Rompuy, President of the European Council.
They discussed effective ways of combating poverty and social exclusion as an imperative for European governance.
We pray for the blessings of this holy month of Ramadan in order to help poverty through dignity, knowledge and respect and social inclusion through justice, dialogue and brotherhood.
Ramadan Karim!
Imam Yahya Pallavicini
