on the situation in Lampedusa
The utter failure of this government policy on immigration has become more evident. After calling "biblical exodus," giving vent to their xenophobic and racist impulses and feeding his "politics of fear", the Minister Maroni, compared to the first landings from North Africa was first refused to open the welcome center in Lampedusa that allowed them to actually create an emergency situation for both migrants and citizens of the island. He sprawled
called for action in Europe, but without in any way to comply with its directives, which in the case of mass influx providing immediate and temporary protection, which aims to ensure proper functioning of the asylum system.
Now, to respond to the emergency that he has given, the Minister proposes unspecified camps and routing plans in different regions, but not to field any concrete action in order to meet the human rights of migrants - which is actually are now in subhuman conditions, similar to those faced in detention centers in Libya, also funded by Italy on the other - and the relief from an untenable situation for the inhabitants of Lampedusa.
The objective of the Minister Maroni and the government to which it belongs is clear: make instrumental to the humanitarian emergency of Lampedusa to permanently dismantle the already inadequate system of reception of asylum seekers, to legitimize the creation of new CIE, and then distribute the new contracts for their (bad) management .
racist and inhuman policies of this government, with the sea prior rejections and the rejection of effective reception now, will never be able to stop migration, nor can it a "humanitarian" war.
decisive action is needed in Europe and the international community, as well as the Italian civil society, because the Italian government respects the law international and European human rights law and asylum and why cancel a wicked choice to leave further escalate the situation in Lampedusa. The relocation should be made immediately, quickly and in the context of appropriate measures to ensure a welcome worthy of the name.
