"We are evaluating the possibility of immediately appealing to the European Court of Strasbourg for the violation of Article 3 of the European Convention on Human Rights , which has already cost Hungary other sentences": thus the lawyer Eugenio Losco , one of the Italian lawyers assisting Ilaria Salis , the 39-year-old of Sardinian origin who has been detained in Budapest for almost a year .

«The violation is obvious, given how she was brought with a leash into the courtroom », continues the lawyer Losco, who returned to Italy yesterday while Ilaria Salis' parents are still in Budapest where this morning they first met their daughter in prison and then the Italian ambassador to Hungary Manuel Jacoangeli. "In the meantime, let's move forward trying to understand what the government's commitment consists of to reach the goal of house arrest," concluded Losco.

Yesterday evening, meanwhile, there was a phone call between Giorgia Meloni and Viktor Orbán , with Palazzo Chigi deeming it necessary to spread the news of direct contact between the two leaders, but in a broader context than the personal story of the 39 years old .

«Suddenly someone noticed my voice in the desert. But I am a man of action, what has happened so far is talk, the facts are something else . Even if the Meloni- Orbán phone call is excellent news ", was the comment in an interview with La Repubblica by Roberto Salis , Ilaria's father.

And after the meeting in prison with his daughter Ilaria, Roberto Salis today defines himself as "moderately optimistic" . «He is still enthusiastic – explains his father – after having seen his friends on Monday and some good signs are also coming from prison where his conditions have improved». As for the new meeting with the Italian ambassador in Budapest: «He told us about the meeting with the Hungarian minister of justice, I think everyone is moving in the right direction».

Meanwhile the case reaches Strasbourg . On Monday afternoon, according to parliamentary sources, a debate on the matter should be held in the plenary of the European Chamber, preceded by a speech by a representative of the EU Commission. The debate should be put on the agenda on Monday immediately after the opening of the meeting.
