Meloni: This government will not betray its word

“Our goal is to defend the legality, safety, and dignity of every person – Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni wrote on Facebook – for this reason we want to put a stop to illegal immigration, avoid new deaths at sea and fight traffickers of human beings. The citizens have asked us to defend the Italian borders and this government will not betray its word”. “On the subject of security and the fight against illegal immigration – underlines the Prime Minister on Fb – the Italians spoke out at the polls, choosing our program and our vision. In recent years we have witnessed inadequate management of the phenomenon, which has produced great and obvious inconveniences: collapsing hotspots, increased landings, law enforcement agencies at the end. And all this has led to a growing climate of general insecurity.”

Salvini: “Does France open a port? Well so, the air has change”

The Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Infrastructure welcomes France’s decision to open the port of Marseille to the Ocean Viking on which there are 234 people, including 55 minors, 43 of whom are unaccompanied.

“Well so – writes Salvini on social media – The air has change.”

Piantedosi: we do not accept lectures on human rights

“If you want to stop at the exegesis of bureaucratic expressions, go ahead, but we do not accept lessons from anyone from the point of view of respect for human rights! Thus, the Minister of the Interior Matteo Piantedosi, on the sidelines of the presentation of the police calendar, responding to those who asked him about the expression “residual load” used in reference to the migrants who remained on board the NGO ships in Catania. In this regard, Piantedosi specified that migrants “are not at sea, they are safe.” “There are appeals in progress, it will be decided in the competent offices.”

Pope Francis: The European Union must take responsibility for immigrants

 Expressing that it is not right and correct to leave the responsibility of all refugees to four countries, the Pope has called on the European Union to produce a just solution for refugees.

Pope Francis, on the return flight from Bahrain to Rome, met with journalists for a press conference. The Pope spoke of the migrants stranded at the port of Catania.

The Pope invites the European Union to collaborate with Italy for the migrant emergency: “You cannot do politics without consent. The European Union cannot leave the responsibility of all migrants arriving on the beaches to Cyprus, Greece, Italy, and Spain.”

The migrant policy must be agreed between all countries

“The migrant policy must be agreed between all countries. Politics cannot be done without consent. And the European Union on this must take a policy of collaboration and help in hand, it cannot leave the responsibility of all migrants arriving on the beaches to Cyprus, Greece, Italy, and Spain “.

Colonial logic produces immigrants

Expressing those strategies of power and interest fuel the flow of immigrants, Pope Francis said that countries should be approached with problem solving solutions and progressive steps, not from a colonial perspective.

Francis then recalled that “Angela Merkel said that the problem of migrants must be solved in Africa. But if we continue to think that Africa should be exploited, it is logical that we will have migrants. Instead, a development plan for Africa is needed, where some countries are not masters of their own subsoil and the attitude of colonial powers continues to be towards them. The exploitation of the people is terrible. If we want to solve the problems of migrants, we solve the problems of Africa and fewer of them come”.
