Mr Salvini attended the opening hearing in Sicily's Palermo, which came a month after it was first postponed.
The 48-year-old has said that the decision was not his alone, but agreed by the government, including by the then-prime minister, Giuseppe Conte. "This is the courtroom of the Palermo prison. The trial wanted by the left and by the fans of illegal immigration begins: how much will it cost the Italian citizens?" he tweeted.
The beginning of the trial came as 406 migrants rescued in various operations off the coast of Libya by the German charity ship Sea Watch 3 arrived at the Sicilian port of Pozzallo to be disembarked.In the 2019 Open Arms case, migrants were finally allowed to leave the vessel after six days, following an order by the prosecutor's office. A subsequent onboard inspection revealed serious overcrowding and dire sanitary conditions.
1) Matteo Salvini for the EU president! 2) He is not a far-right, he is just a traditional right-wing politician. The real far-right is in Ukraine and has been sponsored & always backed up by the left-wing liberals & socialists from the US Dem Party.
If they were illegal migrants how can he have committed an illegal act stopping illegality? Anyway these human rights laws pertaining to refugees is long over due a revamp..with all the persecution in the world we don't need these people faking it.
Well that’s one way to get him re-elected
It’s amazing when you say “illegal” what he done……then call “ILLEGAL” immigrants, rescued migrants !
The leaders who encourage human trafficking are the real scum who have people drowning in the sea. Australia has the right idea, send the boats straight back and stops the endless flow of human trafficking.
May he get his just desserts.
