Italy's deputy PM Salvini called for 'mass cleansing, street by street, quarter by quarter', newly resurfaced footage reveals
Footage has re-emerged of Italys new interior minister calling for a mass cleansing of migrants from entire parts of the country.
Matteo Salvinis comments are being shared on social media after he announced a census of the countrys Roma community, setting the stage for deportations of the ethnic group.
We need a mass cleansing, street by street, piazza by piazza, neighbourhood by neighbourhood, Mr Salvini, who is also Italys deputy prime minister, said in an interview last year. We need to be tough because there are entire parts of our cities, entire parts of Italy, that are out of control.
During the same interview, the 45-year-old suggested Italy could adopt policies on immigration similar to those of Donald Trump in the US.

(35,097 posts)1. Nope. No more. If Trump is linked to things like this, we can't accept this
We need a formal statement saying the US can no longer endorse the White House and Trump administration and then work on every safe and legal way of resistance against this administration and government.
