        That doesn’t solve the migration. Unless the West stops paying lip service and implement what was prophesied by the great Chinese Chairman Mao Tzetsung more than 40 years ago. Jointly make the countries of origin better place to live no force can stop immigrants entry to the West

        You misspelled "human trafficking ship". Rescuers return people to the nearest safe port, they don't haul them hundreds of miles to Italy.

        Tourists will stop going there any way if Italy keeps on ruining itself through enforced mass migration of people w different values. So makes sense for them to at least preserve their culture and dignity!

        There is no decision more inhuman than this in the chaos and fatalities that has been seen across the Mediterranean Sea. This makes #Panama complicit in the deaths that may happen soon. The @EUCouncil & @eu_echo should step in immediately.

        Italy doesn’t have to take in these opportunistic economic migrants. The EU can fuck off. Italy needs to serve Italian people first.
