On twitter, the Minister of Transport, Danilo Toninelli, gives indications to Diciotti, "the port is that of Catania". Too bad that the Ministry of the Interior does not authorize the landing. Matteo Salvini repeats the line of the last few days. "Nobody will abandon the ship until concrete solutions will arrive at European level for the division of the survivors".
The Head of the Interior Ministry is also at odds with the Coast Guard because he has helped the migrants, who in response says, "we have responded to a sos that Malta has ignored". The Maltese Government "Italy has interfered, there were no difficulties". Meanwhile, the Ministry for Foreign Affairs is working with the European Union, Minister Enzo Moavero Milanesi has called on the European Commission.
The odyssey does not end for the case. In Agrigento, the attorney Luigi Patronaggio opened a file on the affair. To investigate are the Capitaneria di Porto Empedocle and the Mobile Squad, who have already listened to the 13 migrants made to disembark in Lampedusa for medical treatment. All have confirmed the version of the Italian Coast Guard, denying Malta and making the tear between Rome and Valletta increasingly clear.
Then Minister Toninelli clarifies again, "the ship Eighteen will dock in Catania - always denied by the Interior Ministry that does not grant the berth. The brave men of the coastguard have fulfilled their duty by saving lives to just 17 miles from Lampedusa. Now Europe is quick to play its part ".
"Nave Diciotti then added Matteo Salvini,"it can also disembark in Italy, as long as the migrants are divided, in the spirit of European solidarity, which is made up of 27 Countries. Courtesy as we welcomed more than 700.000 people who arrived by sea, to do their part".
Also Salvini has also reiterated the opportunity to bring migrants back to Libya, in case of non-cooperation, "if you can revise the motorway concessions, you can also review the international treaties that have in some cases 50 years of history behind as the world has changed in half a century. And immigration has also changed ".
Tove Ernst, spokesman of the EU Commission for Migration, does not reply but says that negotiations are in progress "to find a solution, as quick as possible. We have been contacted by the Italian authorities and we are contacting the Member States ". Meanwhile, the Guarantor of the rights of persons detained and deprived of their liberty. Mauro Palma, after asking for information on the state of migrants, informed the high offices of the State on the "humanitarian relevance" aspects of the "permanently forced" refugees on the Diciotti.
