Brothers of Italy lawmaker Silvio Giovine on Tuesday depicted the migratory flows toward Italy as “retaliation against Europe and the West.”
Some analysts quickly dismissed Crosetto’s assertions that the Wagner group was behind the migrant arrivals, which so far this year number roughly triple those of each of the previous two years.
Other Meloni allies in recent days have cited Italian intelligence services’ fears that some 685,000 migrants now in Libya could soon be headed on smugglers’ vessels toward Italy. But U.N. migration agency officials have called that scenario implausible, saying that while as many as 700,000 migrants might reside in Libya, many are from African countries further south and want to return home after working in Libya.
Meloni and some of her ministers have come under fire by critics — opposition leaders and humanitarian groups — which contend the Feb. 26 shipwreck might have been avoided had Italian Coast Guard rescue vessels been quickly dispatched as soon as the migrant boat, which set had sailed from Turkey, was spotted by a patrol plane operated by the European border agency.
