«The definitive acquittal of Matteo Salvini in the OpenArms trial, confirmed by the Supreme Court of Cassation, concludes a judicial affair that had strong public relevance. The final decisions of the judiciary must always be respected, because they contribute to strengthening legal certainty and the correct balance between state powers. It is in the country’s interest that the political debate takes place on clear bases and with respect for the institutions.” The president of the Sicilian Region, Renato Schifani, wrote it on Facebook.
Germanà: “Salvini defended the borders, and justice has been done”
«I thank Matteo Salvini who defended the borders of Italy and our Sicilian coasts: this is not a crime. Finally, with the definitive acquittal, justice is done and the great, courageous and coherent work he carried out at the Interior Ministry is recognized. The League advances the safety of Italian citizens and our territory even more forcefully.” Thus Senator Nino Germanà, secretary of the League in Sicily.
