Burn the field of Moria from Lesbo, the emblem of what the Greece It has inherited from years of uncontrolled arrivals and landings and from the migration crisis generated especially after 2015. There are thousands of people staying here, over time real slums have emerged that have absorbed about half of all the asylum seekers present in the Hellenic islands.
A true barrel of gunpowder, now exploded after the fires that plagued the entire area for a few hours. A problem first of all for Athens, which since last year has been involved in a crackdown to return the thousands of people crammed into Lesbos to more suitable structures on the mainland. The Greek government now finds that a disproportionate number of guests from the Moria camp will be urgently placed elsewhere: “At least 12 thousand migrants – said in the morning Stratos Kytelis, Mayor of the main town of Lesbos – They are on a road guarded by the police ”. An emergency, to which another is added: some of the migrants present in Moria tested positive for the coronavirus, others were waiting for the result of the swab. Now I am away from home, in contact with other people and with health and police personnel.
The nightmare of a sanitary bomb looms over Athens, whose government has been in an emergency meeting since this morning. But the problems now may not only affect Greece. In fact, from Berlin the German Foreign Minister, Heiko maas, urged solidarity towards the Hellenic country on the part of the different governments of the European Union.
Germany, current president of theEUIn short, he called for a relocation out of Greece of the more than ten thousand immigrants now evacuated from the Moria camp: “We must clarify as quickly as possible with the European Commission and other EU member states that they are ready to help – read cheep by Heiko Maas – how can we support Greece? This also includes the distribution of refugees in the EU among those who are willing to host them.
The mockery of Italy
An appeal, the one launched by the German Foreign Minister, which could sound like a mockery for Italy. It is true that for now there is a situation in Lesbos emergency With few precedents, it is true that Greece alone cannot bear the burden of more than ten thousand migrants to be housed in a few hours, but it is also true that a few days ago Germany closed its doors to Rome after relocation.
Government Count II Since his inauguration he has been pushing to undermine a mechanism of relocation automatic and not left to the mere will of the EU member states. The Minister of the Interior Luciana Lamorgese He has made proposals about relocating his workhorse. But on the European side, the answers have always been negative. And this both after the failed summit in Malta on September 23, and more recently when Berlin closed any possibility of an agreement in this regard: “During the semester of the German presidency – Angela Merkel’s government sources toldHuffington Post – Relocations will not have priority ”. Position reaffirmed also by the President of the European Council, Charles Michel: “Mandatory migrant relocations – declared the former Belgian prime minister in an interview with Ansa – are not the alpha and omega of the migration discussion. We need a rational approach ”.
So here is the mockery and the paradox for Italy: migrants who land in our country will not be welcomed elsewhere or in any case not with the solution that Rome has proposed on several occasions while, on the other hand, it is possible that now our government be called an effort to receive the migrants present in Lesbos. Another cold shower, on the immigration front, for the Giallorossi.
