ITALY: Lampedusa’s cemetery

16 November 2012

Support our work: become a Friend of Statewatch from as little as £1/€1 per month.

Statement by the mayor of Lampedusa:

“I’m outraged by the normalcy that seemed to have spread to everyone like contagion. I am scandalised by the silence of Europe that has just received the Nobel Peace Prize and yet is staying silent in the face of a massacre that has the numbers of a true war. I’m becoming more convinced that European policy on immigration considers this offering of human lives to be a way to restrict the flows of people, or maybe a deterrent”
