Facing the risk of a mass exodus from the coast of North Africa, Italy does not gather in Brussels by the solidarity that we await 'Europe, or at least ask. "Some Ministers gave a total closure on the principle of sorting of asylum seekers could arrive on our shores after the crisis in Libya, "he admits, after an EU Council of Ministers held" with the handbrake on, "the Minister ' Internal Roberto Maroni, who on Wednesday had sought 'to pre a front of the Mediterranean countries within the EU, with a pre-meeting in Rome.
That the target of a mechanism for distributing the refugees would not be centered it was soon realized, yesterday, in Brussels, has run just started talking about immigration, the French Minister Brice Hortefeux, one of the worst of the 'court' Elysée, he's gone. Unmistakable sign that he would not decided anything. E Maroni said: "Solidarity is not to say Italy and other Mediterranean countries that immigrants of your business", after the earlier call for "a European asylum system." Thus, 'the minister League is discovered "more Europe of some Europeans' Europeanism opportunism, pull out only when you need one another, not of conviction.
In fact, Europe does not show either cohesion or solidarity. But Italy is not pure and innocent victim: the EU should not be relied upon only in times of crisis of its own, but you have to practice it even in times of crisis, others, and the thorny issues to be addressed when there is no crisis, but when there is peace of mind to do it. And do not help the credibility of the authority of Rome dramatizations and exaggerations which were interpreters Foreign Minister Frattini and the same Maroni: when, for example, denounced the lack of assistance from Brussels (which had initially rejected), or when magnify the size of the exodus and emphasize the importance of terrorism.
Only yesterday, in Brussels, Maroni noted: "I am very concerned about what is happening in Libya: al-Qaida says it supports the rebels and against Gaddafi. And what do we do? We must prevent Libya from becoming another Afghanistan. " So put it down ', it seems as if we, that is Europe, we should support Gaddafi, which not only protects us from the flight to Europe from poor bastards, but there is also a shield for terrorists. Nor
help the cause of Italy such as those sorties councilor Venetian Daniel Stival migration flows, recalling "the gun" as a possible response to the wave of migration from North Africa, only to 'fix the shot', holding, pero ', the firm aims: "It' s just a picture, but other countries such as Spain and Greece, use of deadly force, that work. " Shoot no, reject it '. Its president Luca Zaia distanced, but the EU complaint, "which leaves us alone in a diaspora," and puts the stakes to be dispensed to solidarity 'to the people, not the criminals. "
So, for now, Libya is the only Europe-one of the statements, even yesterday, combined with Russia, the European Commission after a visit of Prime Minister Putin 'escorted' by as many as 12 ministers-and coordinate the operation of evacuation of its citizens. It 's true that the 27 prepared "restrictive measures", ie that sanctions against the regime of Gaddafi, but their nature and the exact scope, as well as the date and conditions of entry into force have yet to be decided, coincidentally, among the countries most reluctant to adopt them are Italy, Malta and Cyprus, just three in the forefront in calling solidarity to cope with the exodus of North Africa.
Support those who fight for freedom and, perhaps, democracy, condemning the violence, hope that Gaddafi will leave: a litany. Barack Obama's disappointing that, after that, the U.S. president, just as Libya, after the White House visit of French President Nicolas Sarkozy, is rediscovering Europe. The idea of \u200b\u200bObama: "We Americans do not know the problem. It's up to them, the Europeans, who know more. " And Mondays' Secretary of State Hillary Clinton will be in Geneva to consult on its snazioni with European colleagues. And here is likely to fall ass: Almeria could see that Europe is not ', has no idea what is happening, or has projects (let alone the military of a' no-fly zones') . One thing, Obama has very clear on Libya's finding that Mr. Berlusconi does not trust, so much so that, for a council, called Sarkozy and British Prime Minister David Cameron. Those with right of veto in the UN Security Council, those that 'between large, we understand '.
