Elon Musk on Wednesday slammed on his
X platform as "unacceptable" a decision by Rome judges to nix
the detention of migrants subjected to Italy's controversial
policy of taking asylum seekers to new Italian-run processing
facilities in Albania, wondering whether an "unelected autocracy
make the decisions".
"This is unacceptable.
"Do the people of Italy live in a democracy or does an unelected
autocracy make the decisions?", wrote Musk.
The Tesla, X and SpaceX owner Musk, who was appointed by US
President-elect Donald Trump on Tuesday to head a newly created
government efficiency agency, was responding to a post on X
saying Premier "Giorgia Meloni's government in Italy will not be
allowed to deport illegal aliens according to judges".
The immigration unit of Rome's tribunal referred the case
concerning a second group of migrants taken to a new Italian-run
centre in Albania to the European Court of Justice, suspending
the validation of their detention.
The Rome court this week suspended judgement pending the ruling
of the European Court of Justice over the potential primacy of
EU law over Italian legislation in determing the safety of a
migrant's country of origin in order to identify the procedures
to be implemented in a specific asylum case.
