But consider.

If this man had died of cancer in prison, he would be a martyr. Giovanni de Stefano is and was his lawyer in Rome. Now that the costs of palliative care are in his own country the right decision was made. He cannot be a martyr that went home in a box. That is why I think that his care in terminal illness is best done in the country of his birth.
Oh, so that's why the decision was made. Nowt to do with all that oil beneath the desert sands and various other juicy trade deals, of course.
