For your information

On the website www.politika.bz.it, the rule of the mother-tongue is followed, i.e. free language choice. This means that not all texts are necessarily published in the two official languages of our province. Although the structure of the website and the available menu are in both Italian and German, it is possible that in the two linguistic versions of the website there are texts that were not translated into Italian, German, Ladin or English.
