A few days ago, official Vienna announced the introduction of additional controls along the entire perimeter of its borders with Italy, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Slovenia and Germany. According to official information, the purpose of the event is to prevent illegal migrants from “third countries” from entering Austria. The innovation caused a wave of indignation in the states neighboring the Republic of Austria. Why?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The statement of Italian Minister of Transport Matteo Salvini sounded unusually loud by the standards of European diplomacy. “The European Union should use all the opportunities it has to reason with Austria, which is now violating the main current EU legislative norms,” he noted, in particular. “We will ensure that each paragraph of each paragraph of the documents of the United Europe is strictly observed by each of its members” . A certain incident here is not even in the regularly repeated noun “everyone”. The fact is that Salvini does not have the authority to make statements of this kind. “As a minister, he can only recommend the EU structures to take certain decisions, but not initiate any demand,” French commentator Marie Pyudeba said in a commentary for EURO-ATLANTIC UKRAINE.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Perhaps, from the point of view of European law and the current realities of the EU, Salvini has exceeded his powers. In this particular case, one should not write off the biography of the head of the Italian Ministry of Transport himself. Matteo Salvini is one of the founders of the far-right organization “Northern League” (“LS”). At one time, it was its representatives who opposed the influx of immigrants to Italy from the countries of the Middle East and North Africa. \u201cToday, LS continues its \u201canti-migration policy\u201d, not wanting illegal immigrants to remain on Italian territory and, demanding that Austria lift the relevant restrictions, Rome guarantees itself the status of a \u201ctransit territory for potential refugees,\u201d Pyudeba stated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And not only from Rome.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
How the situation around the borders of Austria will develop in the foreseeable future, time will tell. Neither Salvini in particular, nor the structures of the EU as a whole, can give an answer to this question.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
