An outburst that dates back to ten years ago and which, however, sounds more relevant than ever: “Dear Europe, leave us alone on migrants. It’s easy for France and Germany to leave the problem to us, accusing us of racism”, said Iva Zanicchi in 2013. Today, a guest on Dritto e rovescio, the former Italian MEP does not seem to have changed her opinion regarding the management of the landings. “A statement that could have been made this morning”, commented the host Paolo Del Debbio.

“We are an arm in the Mediterranean. Then the usual problem. Europe taking charge, Germany which has said things in recent times…”: this is how Zanicchi began, obviously alluding to the statements of the German chancellor Olaf Scholz, who on Saturday announced the strengthening of border controls in his country. “You can’t say bad words, right?”, the former Italian asked Del Debbio. Then the singer took off the brakes: “she did some bullshit. It is honorable that you can finance ships that save migrants at sea, but then where do you put them?”, she asked.

And again: “Where do you unload them? You take them to Germany. You keep them. You don’t send them to Italy as we already have too many”, he added, sparking applause from the audience. “We must have mercy on these people who die at sea. But you, German ship, must take charge of them and take them there. Giorgia Meloni is fighting for this. We must be tough. Go to Europe and really fight with your fists. They did France and Germany were the masters and we were bringing up the rear”, he concluded.
