The issue of Migrants continues to remain the hot topic on the Italian and international political scene.
Danilo Toninelli, Minister for Infrastructures, responding to an interview with the Radio on the issue of migrants, said he was in line with Interior Minister Matteo Salvini. According to Toninelli "the real battle is to separate the rescue from the management of asylum applications that only Italy can not do. The goal is not to start the boats of death ".
Regarding the rescue and a possible SOS launched by a boat full of migrants, the Minister of Infrastructure said "We will not, as we have never done, die no human lives. If there are no other competent authorities in the sea and responsible for that maritime area, the Italian Coast Guard will continue to intervene. You will not arrive at my order of intervention, it will do it autonomously. The real battle in Europe is that the rescue at sea must be divided, which Italy continues to do, from the management of asylum applications that can not always and only Italy ".
