In addition to the Mayor Federico Sboarina, present Matteo Salvini con Andrea Bacciga (together also with the Horse Fair) and the Minister for Family and Disability Lorenzo Fontana. Obviously, This year too, a delegation from us participated Circle Christ the King, at one of the annual events, have become among the most important.
Of Francesco Barana

A few lines, but significant. With a key passage: “The Verona Eurasian Forum has earned credibility and prestige” regarding “the economy of trust and business diplomacy from the Atlantic to the Pacific, to be freed from barriers and sanctions".

This was written in a letter read yesterday at the opening of the Forum in Gran Guardia, Vladimir Putin, which thus christens our city as central to helping resolve, or at least to overcome, the diplomatic-commercial conflict between the US-EU on one side and Russia on the other.

The Eurosian Forum, created ten years ago by Antonio Fallico's scienzare eurasia association, has always boasted great guests from national and international politics and economics. However, Putin's legitimation represents a leap in quality and takes on a decisive political-diplomatic significance for the review, and consequently also for our city which is lucky enough to host it.

“Free to leave Islam”, historical turning point in Morocco

No death sentence for the apostate, and freedom of choice for those who want to embrace other faiths: This is what the Higher Council of Ulema in Morocco expressed itself for the first time, paving the way for Islamic reformism

Of KARIMA MOUAL
No death sentence for the apostate and freedom for those who want to leave Islam and embrace other faiths. It's a historic position, the one assumed by the highest religious representation of Morocco, the Higher Council of Ulema, which continues to courageously pave the way for reformism within Islam – at least his own – without shadows or ambiguity. We are therefore aiming for a high level of discussion, even taking a step back from the past. The Council in fact rejects its previous fatwa of 2012 according to which Moroccans guilty of apostasy would have a single destiny: death. A common rule for all Muslim countries, but provided for in various forms by the legal regulations in force. In Morocco, for example, the death penalty is not contemplated, but the penal code speaks of detention for the apostate which can go up to 3 years.
A position, but, which had already caused a lot of discussion at the time in a country that has made religious pluralism its flagship, and who more than others pays attention to it and carries out immense work to defend his position and vision of a "moderate Islam". The Ulema Council therefore, tries to draw a clear line on a very current issue, politically and socially inconvenient and which in the future could present itself as a deadly trap because in the country they have revealed, without any more filters, inhabitants who moved from Sunnism to Shiism (the first Shiite centers opened only last year) as well as Christianity or, really, all’ateismo. Voices that have recently come out of hiding, challenging the hypocrisy of those who know them, but he doesn't want to recognize them.

Libya in the hands of traffickers now looks to Italy for a turning point
Source: The Lighthouse on the World
Migrations for Libya and from Libya are still a problem and, to pay for it, it is the same local population. “The Libyans want the immigration phenomenon to be stopped”, Jamal Adel tells us, a boy who is part of the Tebu tribe in Kufra in the south-east of the country.
“It would be a great thing if the new interior minister Matteo Salvini could stop the migration problem", another boy who requested anonymity for security reasons and who works for an organization that monitors conflicts in Sebha tells us, a town destroyed by human trafficking.
The boy then adds that “few newspapers are interested in what Libyans think about the migration phenomenon but, actually, we want this phenomenon to stop because it is seriously damaging our country".
Mac K. B. Simpsons, Ghanaian and migration expert who lives in Tripoli, he tells us: “It is important that this trafficking is stopped before the migrants even enter Libya”.
For many Libyans the problem is to be found above all in the NGOs operating in the Mediterranean: “Traffickers rely on NGOs, it has already been proven that they collaborate. They also feed the Libyan and Italian mafias", says Adel. Read More

Migrants, la svolta dell'Italia: all ports closed

The NGO ship will not be allowed to disembark. The letter to Malta to force it to take charge of the migrants
Of Giuseppe De Lorenzo
Many expected a turning point. E, Perhaps, that's what's really about to happen. Matteo Salvini in fact, it has decided to close all Italian ports to NGO ships loaded with migrants.
The boat who is carrying i 600 shipwrecked people rescued in these difficult hours it was not not being authorized to dock in the Bel Paese.
The vessel (flying the flag of Gibraltar) after the rescue operations it arrived in Maltese waters. Salvini sent a letter to the Maltese government to explain that the “nearest safe haven” it is precisely the island-state and that if Valletta does not want to take charge of the migrants, this time it won't be Italy that takes its place. The unprecedented change also had the green light from the Minister of Infrastructure, Danilo Toninelli (responsible for landing authorizations).
One thousand saved in the Mediterranean
The waters of the Mediterranean therefore return to being the main national and international political scenario. Today they were saved 627 migrants in six different rescue operations. Ben 123 of these are minor, 11 children and 7 pregnant women. A boom in departures that raises some suspicion. According to some analysts, Indeed, Libya would be sending messages to the new executive to test the stability of the agreements made by Marco Minniti. E, Perhaps, to try to obtain some concessions (and money) more. Read More
