October 1st 2007, Ghedi (Italy) - 200 people gathered at the main square of the Italian town Ghedi, to launch a new campaign to declare Italy a NWFZ through a legal initiative. The Mayors of Aviano, Castenedolo and Ghedi were the first to sign the new law proposal declaring Italy a nuclear-weapon-free country. A very  significant event, as Aviano and Ghedi are the two Italian cities where US nuclear weapons are stationed.
