Elon Musk forced the Italian Left to
defend Italian sovereignty after he called for the dismissal of
Italian judges who had nixed the detention of migrants taken to
new processing centres in Albania, Premier Giorgia Meloni said
Tuesday.
She said this contradicted the centre left's call for the EU to
open infraction proceedings against Italy for the controversial
new policy of offshoring migrant processing to a non-EU country.
"The left is tearing its clothes over (Musk's) interference
after having among other things asked the EU to open an
infringement for Italy, said Meloni, in Rio de Janeiro for the
G20, during a press briefing. "Among the many exploits that Musk
has achieved is having forced the left to defend national
sovereignty."
Meloni is a personal friend of the world's richest man.
