Italy takes control of its migration policy

Winnie the Pooh flies above blue police helmets. The little animal narrowly misses Giorgia Meloni’s car. Demonstrators throw stuffed animals once morest the convoy of the President of the Council arriving in Cutro, Calabria. They want to remind him of the children who disappeared in the shipwreck that claimed the lives of 70 people at the end of February. “Shame on you,” they shout before yelling “assassins!” The protesters are targeting all the members of the right-wing government who landed yesterday followingnoon in southern Italy for an extraordinary Council of Ministers. “We wanted to give a signal that was both symbolic and concrete,” said the Prime Minister at the end of the meeting.
