A four-minute intervention , live on Tg1, in which Matteo Salvini attacks the judiciary , intertwining the Albania case and the Open Arms case.
An interview that came in the midst of the renewed clash between politics and the judiciary, with the deputy prime minister holding his lances high and calling the League to mobilize against the "politicized magistrates" . And citing the twelve migrants moved from Albania to Bari, after the decision of the Rome court, he declares: " If one of these twelve were to commit a crime tomorrow, rob, rape, kill someone, who pays the consequences? The magistrate who brought them back to Italy? " "I would like to know why, of all the workers who pay for their mistakes, magistrates never pay," he adds.
From Albania to the Open Arms trial, for Salvini « some magistrate overturns the popular vote and the government's laws ».
The response of the secretary of the Democratic Party, Elly Schlein, was very harsh on the episode, speaking of a "delirious rally on Tg1" by "Salvini who attacks the judges who do their job according to the laws and the Constitution". "Rai debased as a megaphone of a government that wants to dismantle the separation of powers by attacking the judiciary - Schlein added - It's not possible, we won't allow it".
Also on the matter is the note from the editorial board of the newspaper . «We believe that the over four-minute interview with Minister Salvini, defendant in the Open Arms trial, broadcast in the 8:00 p.m. edition of the news, has damaged one of the principles at the basis of our profession: equidistance between the subjects we are called to deal with », the content of the note. «Public service information must always be super partes - it continues - and never perceived as only from one side. We expect that, in view of the December ruling, the same space will be given to the civil parties».
