Quotes (Regarding the separation of careers between penal prosecutors and judges and its relationship with the "Plan for Democratic Rebirth) I am not familiar with the P2 plan. I can say that if Mr. Licio Gelli's interpretation, or rather opinion, was a correct opinion, there is no reason why it should not be followed just because he said so. Truths do not depend on who proclaims them, but on the objectivity they represent. Io non conosco il piano della P2. Posso dire che se l’interpretazione o meglio l’opinione del signor Licio Gelli era un’opinione giusta, non si vede perché non si dovrebbe seguire perché l’ha detto lui. Le verità non dipendono da chi le proclama, ma dall’oggettività che rappresentano. Nordio: “La separazione delle carriere nel piano Gelli? Anche lui aveva idee giuste”, Il Fatto Quotidiano, 18 November 2025. URL archived on 12 January 2026. (About wiretaps) Their dissemination, sometimes selective and perhaps manipulated, is a deadly tool for personal and often political delegitimization. These are substantial, almost blasphemous violations of Article 15 of the Constitution, which establishes the secrecy of communications as an interface of freedom. Carlo Nordio wants a profound reform of wiretapping, 6 December 2022. Wiretapping is absolutely essential in the fight against the mafia and terrorism; it is fundamental to understanding the movements of people suspected of serious crimes. Wiretapping mafia members helps us understand who they talk to and how they move. :*Paola Di Caro, Sì alle intercettazioni, non agli abusi, Corriere della Sera, January 18, 2023. Aiding and abetting does not exist as a crime; it is a creation of jurisprudence. That is, the Supreme Court, the judges, invented this rather evanescent formula, which, strictly speaking, I would call “Popperian,” is an oxymoron. Because the concept of external complicity is contradictory, hence the oxymoron, because if you are a competitor, you are not external, and if you are external, you are not a competitor. Of course, when you discuss all these things from a technical point of view, you find ideological and emotional answers. We do not want to eliminate it; we know very well that you can be a mafioso within the organization and you can be an accomplice outside the organization, but then the crime needs to be completely redefined, which at the moment does not exist either as a specific or a specific offense because it is not in the code. (July 11, 2023) ‘’Nordio wants to change the offense of aiding and abetting a mafia association‘’, ‘'Il Post’', July 11, 2023 This book should be studied at the High School of the Judiciary (referring to the book entitled ‘'Il mostro’' by Matteo Renzi). Page of presentation, 2022. L'espresso, 24 March 2005 I believe that no magistrate should ever run for election, and even more so, a public prosecutor who has become famous for political investigations should not do so. Legitimate choices are not necessarily appropriate ones. A magistrate must not only be impartial, but must also appear to be impartial. The mindset of a magistrate is not that of a public administrator. [...] The idea that politics is unable to come up with a name from within its own ranks and must resort to a magistrate is a sign of a deep crisis. I agree with the crisis in justice. Ninety percent of our work is useless because we have Byzantine procedures for prosecuting mountains of crimes. We are grinding water and this is frustrating.
