(ANSA) - Florence, December 2 - University of Siena Rector
Francesco Frati issued a statement on Monday condemning
pro-Hitler tweets by Professor Emanuele Castrucci.
A post said that "Hitler, even though he certainly wasn't a
saint, in that moment was defending the entire European
civilisation".
The professor also tweeted a picture of the Nazi dictator
with a dog.
Frati called the tweet by Castrucci, who teaches philosophy
of law and philosophy of public policy, shameful and offensive
and said a disciplinary procedure has already been started.
