The Sanremo controversies do not subside. In recent days the name of Ghali, the Milanese rapper of Tunisian origins who participated in the 74th edition of the Festival, has hit the headlines because he launched pro-Gaza messages from the stage of the Ariston theatre. This position was also reiterated during the last episode of Domenica In. Which is why the CEO of Rai, Roberto Sergio, asked the presenter Mara Venier to read a statement in which she expressed solidarity with Israel. This was the topic that sparked the debate at Eight and a Half. Michele Santoro took the floor and admitted: “On Ghali, I would not have used the term ‘genocide'”, later specifying: “But at this moment it means let’s stop the weapons and the massacre of the innocents”.

“But if we go and read the international treaties that regulate genocide we are probably in the middle of an action that can be defined as genocidal”: this is how the journalist and founder of the Peace, Land and Dignity list later expressed himself. “Amadeus took a questionable position on the sinkholes, absolutely outside the story, but he said what he wanted without remembering or explaining all the events. Why – continued Santoro – if Ghali scratches the uniform information he must premise that there was October 7? If Ghali talks about Palestine, the Rai CEO shouldn’t rush to make a response statement by entrusting it to a presenter. And I would have been smarter, I would have had an announcer read it”, he said. At that point Aldo Cazzullo, also a guest of Lilli Gruber, entered the debate. “I would not have used the word genocide,” said the Corriere della Sera journalist in response to his colleague’s statements.
