But they claim this purchase was never registrted so it became
a protectorate of Italy not a part, they have their own stamps id cards, and driving
licenses and council of ministers, and soveriegn veto, obviosly wantinmg to be
a tax aven say some like Monaco, I think it would be wrong, as tax haves are wrong,
and also if we go back like that we would split into loadsof lands, but itr would
not be bad oif they canm have their own national idnetity, and if the monarchy
has no power, or state authority or seeming attutide to it, of being superior
or nobler.

Savoie.
The French Minister of European Affaits, also president of the General
