It was January 31 when the Giallorossi government declared a state of emergency due to the pandemic. coronavirus. From that moment, and until last November 17, the last update date of the observatory on Covid calls, the executive put lots on the table for a total value 4,730 million euros.
China supplies
Well, 36.25% of this sum, quantifiable at 1.71 billion, was awarded by companies with offices located in countries other than Italy. At the top of this particular ranking, which includes all foreign companies, are those Chinese, with 1,570 million euros of tenders awarded.
Behind the Dragon we find the South Korean companies, which were awarded a total amount of 29,050,000 euros, the US (28,818,202), Hong Kong (25,161,396), German (25,088,620) and the United Kingdom. (10,338,000). Calculator in hand, Chinese companies have obtained the vast majority of calls for the Covid emergency won by non-Italian companies: 91.7% of the total.
There are many elements related to the type of supplies that Italian administrations have bought from foreign companies. By focusing our attention only on China, we notice how Rome has received from Beijing “masks and other protections“(99.44% of the total)”,transport and handling“(0.34%) e”intensive care, resuscitation and medication“(0.22%).
The accusation of Giorgia Meloni
The accusation of Giorgia Meloni to the government of Giuseppe Conte. The leader of Fratelli d’Italia highlighted on Facebook how the Italian executive has assigned a third of the calls to manage the Covid emergency to Chinese companies.
“Disturbing numbers – the dose of Meloni has increased – that certify the absolute dependence of the pentapiddine executive of the Beijing regime: the misfortune in misfortune is having to face a health, social and economic emergency, with a government totally subordinate to foreign interests“.
Finally the lunge at the super commissioner Domenico Arcuri: “The huge amounts managed by Arcuri were to be made available to the Italian companies, supporting investments for the reconversion and for the domestic production of everything necessary to manage the emergency.“.”This is the worst political class in Republican history: incapable, lacking in vision, subservient to foreign interests, and animated only by the need to pursue a career and secure a seat.Meloni concluded.
Remember that the China it has sent aid of all kinds to countries around the world, including Italy, in the name of a very specific political strategy. The Asian giant has clarified the concept of “Medical silk road“to exploit, from a geopolitical point of view, his victory against Covid-19.
Basically, we are talking about a replacement for Belt and Road at the time of the coronavirus pandemic. In other words, and legitimately from the Chinese point of view, Beijing has seen fit to take advantage of the offer of health care strengthen already established diplomatic relations and, at the same time, initiate new ones.
