Migrants, the majority wants a stop to special protection. Celebrate Salvini: “My decrees are back”

Goodbye special protection for migrants. The turning point is contained in the Cutro decree being converted in the Senate. The flag is planted, with Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni on a mission to Ethiopia, Matthew Salvini, Deputy Prime Minister of the Northern League. Here is the triumphant note of the Carroccio: “A majority amendment has been filed which incorporates those of the League which give a tightening to the special protection introduced by Minister Lamorgese and the left in 2020. It had become an amnesty, an immigration pull factor. The protection special has created overcrowding in courts and police stations and has not produced integration. We return to the Salvini decrees “.

The Cutro decree, which concerns the flows of migrants and was born after the tragedy of migrants at sea off the Calabrian coast, is preparing to arrive in the Senate Hall on Tuesday, without a speaker. No decision by the government has yet been taken on the possibility of affixing the trust issue. There are approximately 347 sub-amendments to the changes presented by the executive in the past few hours. The law claimed by the League concerns asylum seekers. On this aspect at the beginning there had been some perplexities leaked by the Quirinale.

The Deputy Minister of the Interior Nicholas Molteni (Lega), speaking to journalists in Milan on the sidelines of the celebrations for the 171st anniversary of the foundation of the State Police, motivated the choice as follows: “The special protection introduced by the Pd-Ms government has created problems for courts and police stations and it will be removed with the conversion of the immigration decree. We will crack down on the special protection which will be cancelled”.

The management of migrants in a more general sense has also provoked a question and answer between the CEI and Matteo Piantedosi, the Minister of the Interior. The Italian bishops’ conference has criticized the state of emergency on migrants and the squeeze on special protection, inviting the government to focus on Lampedusa. According to Cardinal Zuppi, president of the CEI, the real emergency has already been in Lampedusa for several months. To these words Piantedosi replied as follows: “I have deep respect for the CEI, I agree if the emergency issue is seen in a technical way; there is no immigration alarm in Italy. There is a more acute issue of management in the landing places, but the state of emergency mentioned, the provision adopted by the government, is nothing more than a technical formula which, moreover, has also been used in a less controversial way such as the model used for Ukrainian refugees, and I don’t think anyone meant that there was an emergency on the arrivals of Ukrainians”.
