The Trieste uprisings of November 1953 were severely repressed by the Police Force under the Allied Military Government (GMA), the Anglo-American allied military administration force headed by the British general Thomas Willoughby Winterton.
With the end of World War II, Italy lost the Venezia Giulia region. The Free Territory of Trieste was founded in the capital Trieste and its immediate vicinity in 1947 by a peace treaty. It was an independent state under the administration of the United Nations, which was considered a buffer zone between Italy and Yugoslavia in order to avoid direct conflict between the two nations. Despite the drafting and ratification of the statute, however, due to the mutual vetoes between the former allies, no agreement could be reached on the appointment of the governor, so that the Free State remained divided into two zones: the Allied military government and the Yugoslav military administration. For seven years the Italian and Yugoslav diplomats worked to be able to incorporate the whole of Trieste.
A turning point, however, came in the summer of 1953. With the political elections in June, the new Prime Minister Pella immediately sent a clear signal and reacted with a military demonstration to the attempt by the Yugoslavs to raise the bar for their claims in the Allied Zone as well. The Allies then try to work towards a division of the Free State between the two countries, but complicate the situation further by issuing a bilateral decree: a declaration in which they undertake to cede the civil administration of the Allied Zone to Italy.
Faced with the reaction of Tito, who was preparing to invade Trieste, the Allies suspend the application of the ordinance and provoke lively protests from the Italian side.
== Lyrics ==
Sento il richiamo della mia Patria
sento il richiamo della mia storia
non posso lasciare che muoia la mia città!
l’onda barbarica che ora ci invade
non leverà mai la nostra bandiera
dall’ultima frontiera della civiltà!
GUERRA AI NEMICI DELLA MIA TERRA!
GUERRA AI NEMICI DELLA MIA TERRA!
nelle battaglie forse si muore
ma non cadranno i nostri valori
vivrò in eterno accanto agli eroi!
ragazzi coraggio forza ed onore!
lanciamo in alto i nostri cuori
perchè il domani appartiene a noi!
GUERRA AI NEMICI DELLA MIA TERRA!
GUERRA AI NEMICI DELLA MIA TERRA!
ragazzo che ascolti questo messaggio
nato col sole e i fiori di maggio
innalza dal cielo e fa che non tramonti mai!
l’alba rischiara il nostro cammino
la tradizione è il nostro destino
che viva in un sogno in un ideale:
la Patria!
GUERRA AI NEMICI DELLA MIA TERRA!
GUERRA AI NEMICI DELLA MIA TERRA!
GUERRA AI NEMICI DELLA MIA TERRA!
GUERRA AI NEMICI DELLA MIA TERRA!
