Schlein on migrants in Albania: “If the government circumvents the sentence, it must leave the EU”

“The agreement with Albania is not standing, as we had reported, and they don’t think they can circumvent it, because to circumvent the sentences of the European Court of Justice they would have to leave the European Union. I don’t think they want to propose it even if they don’t it would be the first time.” The secretary of the Democratic Party stated this, Elly Schleinduring the CGIL, CISL and UIL demonstration on wages and health.

For the leader of the Democratic Party, “this institutional clash” with the judiciary is very serious, “fuelled entirely by the Government to cover up their inability. It is not the fault of the judges, it is not the fault of the opposition if they do not know how to read the laws and sentences. Nobody is above European, international and Italian laws, much less are those who govern”.

“So – continues Schlein – it is a very serious clash and we will continue to nail them to their responsibilities and their inability, because they are the ones who made this mess on the skin of migrants’ rights, spending 800 million euros, which instead they should have spent on the lists of waiting, on the hiring of public health personnel. They are the creators of their own disasters”.

The Democratic Party calls for Nordio’s resignation

Meanwhile, the Democratic Party is calling for the resignation of the Minister of Justice, Carlo Nordio, after his intervention in the morning against the magistrates on the Albania case. “In a democratic country, whose democratic and civil life is regulated by a Constitution – in which the principle of separation of powers is clearly engraved – a Minister of Justice who launches such a heavy attack on the judiciary and its independence cannot remain at its place.” They declare it Debora Serracchianiresponsible for Justice in the national secretariat of the Democratic Party, Alfredo Bazoli, Federico Gianassi e Walter VeriniPD group leaders in the Justice Committee of the Senate and Chamber and the Anti-Mafia Commission.

“Nordio is one of the most striking symbols of the failure of this Government – ​​continue the Dem exponents. Its policies for Justice and its enormous responsibilities for the prison situation would already recommend its exit. But this morning’s attack on the Judiciary goes beyond the mark and, by trampling on him – Keeper of the Seals – the constitutional principles, confirms his inadequacy and incompatibility with that role”.
