Intelligence reports indicate as many as 700,000 illegal alien Muslim freeloader-wannabes are in Libya awaiting an opportunity to set out by sea toward Italy, a lawmaker from Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni’s party said Sunday.
EuroNews Tommaso Foti, the lower parliamentary house whip for the Brothers of Italy Party, told television channel Tgcom24 the Italian secret services estimated that 685,000 illegal aliens in Libya, many of them in detention camps, were eager to sail across the central Mediterranean Sea in smugglers’ boats.
Some 105,000 migrants reached Italy by sea in 2022. From the start of this year through March 10, some 17,600 arrived, including a few thousands who disembarked at Italian ports in the last several days. That’s about triple the number for the same time period in each of the two previous years
Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni’s government has made it hard for NGO organizations that operate rescue boats to carry out many rescues in the waters off Libya.
Indian Express On December 28, 2022, Italy’s new government approved a cabinet decree which imposes tougher rules on charity ships that rescue migrants at sea, reported Reuters. These rules will make it harder for such ships to rescue as many migrants as possible – with severe penalties in cases of non-compliance.
The move comes amid the harshening of rhetoric and policies against immigrants in Italy. The new Italy-First government, under Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, came to power on a strong anti-immigration plank. NGO’s have led an outcry against the latest attack on illegal aliens, calling it unethical and potentially, life-threatening.
Meloni has advocated for a blockade of Muslim illegal migrants trying to reach Italian ports, stressing on the need to boost the birth rate of Italian nationals to ease the requirement for migrant labour. She had also once said that “Italy should repatriate illegal migrants and sink boats that rescued them,” according to a report in The Guardian.
After coming to power on an anti-immigration stance, Meloni’s government has started delivering on its electoral promises. In a highly criticised plan enacted in October, Rome has made it harder for migrants rescued from sea to receive protection within its borders.
A standoff with a rescue boat made European headlines in early November. Italy refused to let a boat carrying nearly 200 refugees into its ports, with the vessel finally sailing to France instead. This led to a diplomatic standoff between the two nations.
The latest cabinet decree says that once ships rescue any individual(s) from the sea, they should request a port and sail to it “without delay,” rather than remain at sea looking for other migrant boats in distress. Generally, these rescue vessels operate for days at a stretch, often conducting various rescues and taking potentially hundreds of people onboard (in order to flood Europe with Muslim freeloaders).
Italy’s new law will necessitate captains to return to shore the moment they make even one rescue – with potentially deadly consequences. Riccardo Gatti, who is in charge of a rescue ship run by the humanitarian group Médecins Sans Frontières, told daily la Repubblica on Thursday that the decree was part of a strategy that “increases the risk of death for thousands of people.” (Not Italy’s problem)
Captains breaching these rules risk fines of up to 50,000 euros ($53,175), and repeated violations can result in the impoundment of the vessel.
This is not the first time Prime Minister Meloni’s government has targeted sea rescue charities, blaming NGOs for a surge in arrivals and facilitating the work of human traffickers.
Enough..these are invaders..stop allowing any of them a tiny toe on their soil by any means they need..
Stop ALL welfare “gifts”…any crime ..ANY. deport…not hard to fix…many died for Italy soil…and not these boat invaders.
Un get off your butts help the country’s so folk don’t have to immigrate(invade)..Brussels and un..should fix issues and less passing each other treats..
An array of miniguns along the coast would work.
I don’t know how Italy manages this. Italy is like the Mexico of Europe. Too many people, not enough jobs. Italians were in every European country looking for work.
Havent you heard the latest news. Germanys inlandminister (faeser) will take the load off of italy by bringing them to germany. No shit that is real and as all know the hauses and money here are at an end but no matter we have space they say but i say we shall see what we have. No italy will not drown because she has germany as an overrun pool, but the problem is what will italy and all others do when germany overflows and cant take anymore?. soon we shall have the answer to my question.
Torpedo enemy invasion ships. Foreign troops out of uniform can be summarily executed.
Save money and use speedboats and knifes on poles. You dont need more than that, ok a law for the wooden boats but the rubber boats are easily pierced. Should you want a nice sideshow, then throw blood and guts into the water before the boat piercing.
There is only one way, allowing the population of Italy’s feral hogs to expand even further.
