In the crisis in Libya, Italy has a rival, the France, and an ally, the United States. But there is another actor, fundamental and until now on the sidelines, which can be decisive in resolving the conflict: the Russia.
Another base for the Mediterranean
Although the world's attention on Russian operations is naturally focused on Syria, Libya represents a fundamental point in the Kremlin's Mediterranean agenda. For Moscow, il Mediterranean represents the natural outlet towards the Atlantic. Controlling or in any case guaranteeing the presence in the Mediterranean therefore translates into the ability to emerge from the shell of the Black Sea and obtain positions in the intermediate sea between Russian ports and the ocean.
The Mediterranean is needed. And therefore Libya is needed, given that the conflict that has been shaking the North African country for years mainly concerns the coasts, where there are ports, arsenal, possible military bases e, inevitably, the terminals of gas and oil fields.

“It is clear that they are trying to put a spoke in our wheels. And the accusation of kidnapping, and abuse of office, and the seizure of accounts... it seems to me that this is going too far. It is clear that someone is not resigned to the fact that Salvini is in government". The Minister of the Interior and Deputy Prime Minister Matteo Salvini says this in an interview with The Press after the ruling of the Review which authorizes the seizure of 49 millions from the Northern League for electoral reimbursements presumably not due since 2008 al 2010. What will the League do now?? How will it be able to remain standing without a euro of financing given that the sentence orders the seizure of present and future accounts and therefore also of the sums that will be received? The philosopher Paolo Becchi He has an idea of his own and he exposes it to The Special.

“Salvini is right when he talks about a political act”, Carlo Nordio declared it, in an interview with QN in which he defines the protagonism of those who investigate as "dangerous".. This is how the former deputy prosecutor of Venice commented on the seizure from 49 million euros ordered by the Court of Genoa on the assets of the Northern League after the conviction of Umberto Bossi and the former treasurer Francesco Belsito for electoral reimbursements.
“We need to be careful with measures of this type – he explained – which affect the development of the political dialectic. They should only be adopted if strictly necessary: I don't think they were. Thus there is a risk of altering the democratic game. In this sense, Salvini is right when he talks about a political act". More generally he then stated that "politics must regain confidence in itself if it wants to re-establish primacy over judicial action, otherwise it will remain subordinate to the judiciary, as it happens since 1993, that is, since Mani Pulite broke out”.
Salvini's statements – The seizure of 49 million euros to the League is "madness. Any erroneous use by the treasurer of the old management amounts to just over 300 thousand euros. Jurisprudence in hand, once definitively convicted he had to return those. Da 300mila a 48 million dances a lot...". This is what the secretary of the League had declared earlier that day. “We don't have a penny, We have not received any public funding for two years. If someone made a mistake, go and ask this someone and not us". The League did not become a civil party in the trial of the Court of Genoa against Umberto Bossi and Francesco Belsito which resulted in the seizure of 49 million euros “because we were counting on there being justice in Italy, we considered ourselves the injured party".

Matteo Salvini said he does not believe the latest SWG survey given by the League to 32 percent. The Interior Minister and Northern League leader is right to be cautious, knowing full well - like the other Northern League member Giancarlo Giorgetti – how volatile the consensus is in Italy. It remains an objective fact, However, than his government action (much more than that of his Grillini companions) gain the sympathy of the Italians. Why? Because this happens, although almost all the media do nothing but attack him? It is the frustration of the left that cannot understand the fact that voters simply do not understand that Salvini is "a barbarian", “a fascist”, “a racist”.
It's a misunderstanding that's not just Italian. Il 9 September we vote in Sweden, the country of “good” socialism, of statism from the cradle to the grave and where progressive parties have always governed. The latest polls tell us that even in those latitudes the right-wing party (populist, racist etc etc) is on the rise. The Social Democratic Party is al 23,3 percent, the xenophobic right-wing Sweden Democrats al 19,7. It is likely that everything will then be resolved with the formation of a centre-left government (the proportional system applies and alliances are made after the vote), ma, also in this case, the neutral observer cannot help but wonder what is the reason for the success of Jimmie Åkesson's "unpresentables".
Another example. Tuesday in the newspaper Italy Today Berlin correspondent Roberto Giardina began his article like this: Read More

But what a crisis for the League: Salvini's is a blitzkrieg (and his opponents don't know what to do)
Seizure of Northern League funds or not, Salvini will continue with his project to reorganize the League. Stealing votes and consensus from Forza Italia and Fratelli d'Italia. And with support (involuntary and not even very conscious) of the Five Star Movement. (by Flavia Perina, LAWS)
According to the organizers, over 15 thousand people in the square. But for the police it is five times less, no more than 3 thousand
Of Claudio Cartaldo
Those in Piazza San Babila a demonstrate againstmeeting between Salvini and Orban they say they are certain that they have reached astronomical figures for participation in the "anti-racist" and anti-sovereignist procession.
As often happens, the figures on attendance in the squares spread by the public differ greatly organizers and those certified by the police headquarters. At the "Europe without Walls" garrison the various organizations that, among other things, they also brought hatred against Salvini to the streets, they say they have reached 15 thousand. Exact: 15mila. How many were there according to the police. Five times less, no more than 3 mila. A big difference.
After the garrison, the square emptied but a thousand people left to march in a procession along Corso Venezia. Singing choruses like that: “Salvini and Orban murderers”

The Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of the Interior: the left exists only to insult me, to defend the bankers' EU and unlimited immigrationWith the Minister of the Interior Matteo Salvini “I would like to get to know you personally. He is my hero”. The Hungarian Prime Minister said so, Viktor Orban, leaving the restaurant where he had lunch in Milan. “He is my destiny companion – he added – I'm very curious to know his personality.

FIFTH COLUMN
Of Marcello Veneziani
I know how it will end. I know this because I know the story, I know people, I know the potentates, I know immigrants. I know them like you know them, from experience, precedents, realism and use of the world. Until yesterday the scene was as follows: I haven't heard an Italian that I didn't agree with Salvini, that he did not consider it absurd to incriminate an Interior Minister who is doing his duty, as well as his electoral mandate, to safeguard the nation's borders, as provided for by the Constitution, and protect Italians, reject illegal arrivals and reiterate that migrants do not land in Italy but in Europe. It is absurd that we have to remember Europe when it comes to paying debts or not breaking the bank. And instead we must forget about Europe when the migrants arrive because then, suddenly, we become a nation and we have to deal with it ourselves. Our sovereignty consists in the obligation to welcome them, even if everyone else doesn't want them. Until yesterday there wasn't a person I spoke to who wasn't of this idea in one way or another.
On the other hand, I haven't heard a news broadcast, and program, a commentator, a man of power or a newspaper that was not aligned against Italy, against the Italians, against Salvini and on the side of Europe that doesn't care about migrants, on the side of the judges who indict ministers in the name of the law, on the side of migrants who land illegally. A dry match, the united people on one side, compact power on the other. Almost no one in Salvini's company, the League is there but you can't see it, there is only him, there is the Meloni and then down the desert. The grillini, when they are not hanging on the Fig Tree, and therefore they lean to the left, they act like di Maio in order to float and stay where they are, and play at being superminister, he is ready to take it all back and dump the Ally on whom the Palace's media-judicial cannons are aimed, dai catto-bergogliosi to the scattered left.

The question that is being asked by many people concerns precisely what is happening now that the Agrigento prosecutor has included the Minister of the Interior Matteo Salvini and his head of cabinet in the register of suspects for “kidnapping”, following the eight-day ban on the disembarkation of migrants from the Diciotti ship. Meanwhile, the first thing that happens is political: the League triples its popular consensus and is preparing for a hot autumn for economic issues as the only centre-right political force. The second is of a technical nature and, also given the compactness of the government around Salvini, will bring, in our opinion, to a probable archiving. Come? Here are the procedures:
Salvini under investigation, documents to the Court of Ministers: times and precedents
Deputy Prime Minister and Interior Minister Matteo Salvini has been under investigation since last night (together with his chief of staff) by the Agrigento prosecutor's office for the affair of the Diciotti ship: will have to answer for kidnapping crimes, illegal arrest and abuse of office. The documents will be transmitted to the Court of Ministers which is the guarantee body called to judge the conduct of the institutional office. The procedure to reach the judgment is laborious and also involves a parliamentary vote. Read More
