Italian Premier Silvio Belusconi approached by journalists, holds a crucifix he was given during a visit of new government-funded apartments for earthquake victims in Fossa, near L'Aquila, central Italy, Wednesday Nov. 4, 2009. The Vatican denounced a ruling by the European Court of Human Rights that said the display of crucifixes in Italian public schools violates religious and education freedoms. In a decision that could force a review of the use of religious symbols in government-run schools across Europe, the court on Tuesday ordered Italy to pay a euro5,000 ($7,390) fine to a mother in northern Italy who fought for eight years to have crucifixes removed from her children's public school classrooms. The Italian government said it would appeal. (AP Photo/Sandro Perozzi)
