"So many falsehoods." It is a peremptory Giorgia Meloni who responded to the Chamber yesterday after the Senate communications made on Tuesday in anticipation of the European Council held today. The hottest topics are still those of the Cutro tragedy, nearly 20 days after the disaster that killed at least 76 people, on which the premier returns the opposition's accusations. And the provision of new aid to Ukraine, on which Meloni must instead counter Giuseppe Conte's 5 Star Movement while also guarding against some divisions within its majority.On the first point, the President of the Council asserts, "I have heard a great deal of untruths in this debate, and I view that as good news: when you need to say untruths, you obviously do not have much to say." As a government, she says, "We detailed every terrifying second of what happened to Cutro, but the implication that the government couldn't have saved them for lack of will persists. The guilty are established by evidence in a state of rights. Since the beginning of my mandate, Italy has saved 36,500 people at sea, and we have been left alone to do this work. To say, in light of this effort, that we would allow children to perish is a slander against the Italian State and the police, who are making enormous sacrifices ". Even on the Ukraine issue, the tones are tense: clearly, the 5 Star Movement is the fiercest rival. "Stop? We should tell Putin - Meloni responded to the M5S's request - I would like to hear, if we talk about peace, if we are willing to grant territories, and how. The invasion of Ukraine must be stopped, and if we do not, it will continue. Do you believe anyone enjoys war? The situation is more complicated than propaganda suggests".
