(by Massimiliano D'Elia) Every day there is a real assault on our coasts. 350 arrived tonight with the famous ghost boats, another 85 were rescued by the Coast Guard in waters not under Italian jurisdiction, in the deafening silence of Malta, Libya and France that ignored the distress calls, 60 were rescued to the end of their forces, Alarm Phone reports. In the meantime, there are new attempts to escape from the Sicilian first collection centers, despite the fact that security has been strengthened by the presence of the military. "The moment is actually difficult, declares the Minister of the Interior Luciana Lamorgese. These continuous arrivals are unacceptable, we are doing everything possible ". The Interior Ministry refers to an unprecedented context due to the coronavirus and the consequent economic crisis that has particularly affected the Tunisian tourism economy. Lampedusa boils, with the hotspots collapsing where migrants are welcomed in a truly embarrassing surplus. With 95 places available, some centers welcome more than 1000. The Foreign Minister also raised his tone Luigi Di Maio"I ask the EU to give an answer, in a phase in which there is a very high health risk we expect redistribution to start again immediately. In Italy social security is at risk ".
The admiral of div. (res.) Nicola De Felice, now a leader of the Lega in Lazio, takes stock of the issue of migrants: "We have now arrived at a situation that is no longer sustainable. It is imperative to take steps to ensure that agreements are signed with the governments of Libya and Tunisia to regulate joint patrols in their territorial waters and subsequent disembarkation activities within their borders. There is no need to have any hesitation in applying persuasive measures also of an economic nature if resistance is opposed. It is an emergency, that of illegal immigration, which also concerns a question of national security given that hundreds of former ISIS 'foreign fighters' arrive in Italy from Tunisia. As for the Balkan front, the Dublin regulation must be applied and the illegal immigrants must be sent back to Slovenia and Croatia immediately.". De Felice, specifies that once the migrants are repatriated, "it is up to the UN to verify who actually escapes from the war (and therefore has the right to request political asylum) and who instead migrates for other reasons, returning them to their countries of origin ".
In the midst of a migrant emergency, the Senate today will vote on the request of the Palermo court of ministers to try the leader of the League, Matteo Salvini for kidnapping, in reference to the Open Arms affair where 150 migrants were kept on the ship for 20 days off the Italian coast. A unique example in the world where a minister of the Republic is sent to trial, barring surprises, for carrying out his duties. Now the government is organizing two “lazaretto” cruise ships to isolate migrants during quarantine, ah true… .. today we are in a “state of emergency”… ..where everything is possible. No one will ever be accused of kidnapping for having locked up migrants in the first reception centers where, in front of 95 places, there are over 1100. And human rights? Absolute silence… !!!
