We can assume that Italy's fascist party's strategy of deterrence on its borders is not working. I hope that Italian voters can now see that the tough and cruel approach of Italy's far-right and fascist parties is not effective.

This is a global issue that the entire EU needs to address, instead of relying on inhuman rhetoric and policies.

To be fair, immigration policies have been more or less the same since the early 2000 in Italy. Some different flavour and different shows between Salvini, Meloni and the rest, but Minniti (from PD) was probably even worse (Libyan concentration camps anybody?).

Building clean energy to fight climate change but no immediate effects? It's useless!

Fascism not stopping migrants but makes everyone's life more miserable? We need more fascism!

I think they should copy uk and make a deal with another less popular but safe country to relocate them. It seems to be working for uk.

I see some claims that these people are being weapnized by Russia. Any validity to these claims? Seems beyond a coinsidence that so many show up at the same time. They are also barricading and digging in it looks like. Pretty crazy.

I wouldn't be surprise if Russias FSB is using money to create a bigger migration crisis to divide Europe in this matter.

They should quickly be brought back to Africa then
