On the occasion of day international against the violence on donnethe Prime Minister Georgie Melons wanted to highlight a correlation between the presence of immigrants in Italy and the number of rapes. The Prime Minister’s statement, which certainly causes discussion, intends to highlight how illegal immigration affects some episodes of violence, associating it with situations of social degradation.
Meloni points the finger at immigrants for the rapes
“Now I will be called racist, but unfortunately there is a higher incidence in cases of sexual violence.” Thus Giorgia Meloni, speaking explicitly about immigrants irregular e rapesinterviewed on topics related to day international against the violence on donne.
“When you have nothing, a degeneration occurs that can lead everywhere,” said Meloni a Modern Woman.
The Government’s recipe against violence against women
The Prime Minister then underlined some of the government’s priorities to improve the safety of women, mentioning the increase in personnel in the police force, their treatment, as well as the importance of prosecuting crimes to address the growing sense of insecurity in cities.
“There is work here that is above all security-related, the cultural dimension has less to do with it. We must guarantee the presence of the police, guarantee that there are crimes, guarantee that when someone commits a crime they pay for that crime, which is another issue that we have in Italy, and there is an issue of combating immigration mass illegality that has an impact and is one of the subjects on which the government spends the most” he stated.
Meloni argues that Italy has robust legislation against violence on donne. However, for the Prime Minister the next step must focus on cultural change.
“The rules are not lacking, the tools are not lacking, the resources are always lacking, but in any case we dedicate resources to this matter” he added.
Meloni quotes Cortellesi
“We talked a lot about Paola Cortellesi’s film” added Meloni “which tells of a time in which the oppression of women was almost accepted in society. Before there was violence because in some way it was socially accepted, today, since women don’t accept it, then there is an evolution of motivation” he observed.
“I think that this, also what is happening to young people is something we need to ask ourselves a lot about. If we don’t understand a phenomenon that remains unchanged despite the evolution of society, and we don’t understand the reasons why this is happening, I fear that we won’t be able to be even that effective in the solution.”
