The head of the Italian government Giorgia Meloni called on Wednesday the United Nations to launch “a merciless war” against the smugglers, after an unprecedented influx of migrants on the island of Lampedusa in recent days.
She assured that her country was ready to carry out the efforts against “the slave merchants of the third millennium”. “An organization like this which affirms in its founding document its faith in the dignity and the value of human beings diverting the eyes of this tragedy? “, She launched.
“I think it is the duty of this organization to reject any hypocritical approach to this question and to launch a merciless war against traffickers of human beings,” she said.
