Aldo Romeo Luigi Moro (Italian: ['aldo 'm??ro]; 23 September 1916 – 9 May 1978) was an Italian statesman and a prominent member of the Christian Democracy party.
He served as 38th Prime Minister of Italy, from 1963 to 1968, and then from 1974 to 1976.
He was one of Italy's longest-serving post-war Prime Ministers, holding power for a combined total of more than six years.
Due to his accommodation with the Communist leader Enrico Berlinguer, known as the Historic Compromise, Moro is widely considered one of the most prominent fathers of the Italian centre-left and one of the greatest and most popular leaders in the history of the Italian Republic.
Moro was considered an intellectual and a patient mediator, especially in the internal life of his party.
He was kidnapped on 16 March 1978 by the Red Brigades and killed after 55 days of captivity.
