Maya Sansa (pictured), best known for her interpretation of Red Brigades' quiet terrorist Chiara in "Buongiorno, notte" (Good morning, night) about the tragic kidnapping of Italian prominent politician Aldo Moro, in which she suffers doubts about the strict communist ideology which leads her comrades to kill Moro while his former colleagues of the main, long-time governing Democrazia Cristiana party along with the approval of the official opposition by the Partito Comunista Italiano (at the time the biggest communist party in western world but seeking an agreement to get favours in exchange of external support to the right-wing government, known as the "compromesso storico", no need for translation) substantially discharge him as a victim of the Raison d’État: dans son acception moderne, est la notion par laquelle un État justifie ses actions lorsqu'il poursuit son intérêt national aux dépens de la morale, du droit ou d'autres impératifs. Il s'agit alors d'une notion qui résonne avec celle de secret d'État ou d'autres formes de privilèges que l'État s'octroie au nom de sa survie et de l'intérêt général, à l'aune duquel ses partisans considèrent qu'on peut sacrifier les intérêts particuliers.
