What is the reason for Italy's rejection of refugee ships again?

It is reported that local time 16, Italian Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of the Interior Salvigni publicly stated that the government would refuse the "Lifeline" and "Fox" refugee rescue boats to dock at Italian ports and asked them to find another port to land.

On June 10, a French NGO "Aquarius" rescue ship loaded with 629 refugees was moored in the Mediterranean Sea of Malta, 35 miles away from Italy, waiting for permission from nearby countries to enter Hong Kong. Both the Italian and Maltese governments refused to accept the refugees on board. This incident has aroused great concern from the EU and UNHCR.

On June 5438+0 1, Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez agreed to accept the refugees trapped on the rescue ship Aquarius. It is expected that the rescue boat will arrive in Valencia, the eastern port of Spain, on 17, and the local government is ready to receive the refugees.

On June 13, the Italian government reopened the port, approved the rescue ship "Di Jodi" of the Italian Coast Guard to dock at Catania port, and ordered to receive and resettle all the refugees on board. There are 932 refugees on board, including 4 pregnant women,/kloc-0 minors and 5 critically ill patients, as well as two bodies salvaged by the rescue boat during the search and rescue in Libyan waters.

After the Italian and Maltese governments reached an impasse on accepting refugees, the local government in Corsica, France, expressed its willingness to accept the refugees on board, which was rejected by the French central government. Subsequently, French President Macron criticized the Italian government for its irresponsibility and was dissatisfied and protested by the Italian authorities.

Here, Hungarian Prime Minister Orbán Viktor, who holds an anti-immigration stance, expressed his support for the decision of the Italian government, saying that Italy's refusal to allow rescue boats to enter Hong Kong will lead to changes in the EU's immigration policy; French government spokesman Grievo said on June 5438+02 that Italy and Malta are urging the EU to reform its immigration policy to cope with the crisis caused by accepting refugees.

On June 7, the Dutch Ministry of Foreign Affairs revealed that six men from Libya and Eritrea were accused of trafficking refugees and illegal immigrants from Africa and other places, and have been included in the sanctions list by the United Nations. The sanctions motion was initiated by the Netherlands and supported by France, Germany, Britain and the United States.

According to the investigation of the United Nations expert group, among those sanctioned by the United Nations, four are from Libya and two are from Eritrea. One of them is the commander of the Libyan coast guard, whose operation funds are partly funded by the European Union, aiming at curbing the continuous influx of refugees into Europe. However, the sanctioned people were suspected of colluding with international human trafficking gangs and repeatedly fired at ships transporting refugees and illegal immigrants, with the aim of fishing for people and reselling them.

After the exposure of the "black gold" incident of Libyan refugees, while directly challenging the EU refugee policy, frequent refugee crimes are constantly challenging the tolerance of the European people and questioning the EU's "benevolent" refugee policy. German 14-year-old girl was raped and killed by Iraqi refugees seeking asylum, many terrorists entered Europe as refugees, and a series of vicious refugee crimes occurred in European member States, which constantly plagued European society. It has aroused great anger among the European people and strong dissatisfaction with the EU immigration policy.
