The briefing will be held tomorrow at 12:15 in the Chamber of Ministers Carlo Nordio and Matteo Piantedosi on the case of the release of Libyan General Almasri. This is what emerged from the meeting of the group leaders, according to parliamentary sources. At 15 the same briefing will be held in the Senate.

There will also be, after an initial denial, the live television broadcast requested by the opposition, both in Montecitorio and in Palazzo Madama.

"On the Almasri case, the majority and the government have in recent days forcefully called on everyone to recover the primacy of politics against alleged interference by the judiciary, now finally the government is willing to inform Parliament but President Meloni is withdrawing and the majority is opposed to broadcasting the government's information live on television - accuses the secretary of Più Europa Riccardo Magi - All this is serious and absurd, preventing citizens from listening live to the government's version . Evidently they are not convinced either or do they intend to avail themselves of the right not to respond in defiance of the primacy of politics?".

For days the opposition has been waging a tough parliamentary battle to have Giorgia Meloni report on the case. Yesterday in a half-empty Chamber, as often happens on Mondays, Giuseppe Conte was the first, followed by all the groups, to relaunch the pressure on Meloni, while the M5S deputies began a mini-oratory marathon, 36 of them taking the floor in the discussion on the culture decree but raising the issue of the Libyan's release from prison and his repatriation on a state flight.

Matteo Renzi's attack was marked by sarcasm. "The united oppositions are asking that the government report on the Almasri affair - noted the leader of Iv -. Meloni is not there, Nordio is not there, Piantedosi is not there. They will all be in Roccaraso". " The government decides who goes to report in the name and on behalf of the executive - the clarification of the deputy prime minister Antonio Tajani -, it is not that the opposition decides who should go".

The case has not been classified as a state secret and the investigative secrecy would not affect it either, since the Rome Public Prosecutor's Office, according to the law, omitted any investigation by sending the documents to the Court of Ministers. From what is filtering out, in the position that the government will present, there will be references to the arrest warrant of the International Criminal Court on Almasri, documents already criticized by various ministers in recent days for their timing and the "errors" they contain.
