Ilaria Salis expressed concerns for the people who were stopped and detained in connection with the events in Milan, indicating that it was unclear where they were located and that among them there were numerous minors with a migratory background. She added that any crimes should have been verified in the competent venues and that they should not have deprived young people of their fundamental rights. Salis recalled episodes of serious violence that occurred, in her opinion, in the recent history of the country during moments of great tension, expressing hope that her concerns were unfounded. She accused the right of authoritarianism and being driven by vengeance, classism, and racism, and argued that Italy should remain a law-based state, not a police state. She also reiterated that guarantees and fundamental rights should apply to everyone, especially in those moments. From Strasbourg, she reported that she was trying to contact the competent authorities to better understand the situation and contribute to a peaceful solution. Finally, she thanked the self-organized legal team that was assisting the people involved. #DirittiUmani #Solidarietà #GiustiziaSociale (translated)
