Milan-Cortina Olympics, Bannon: ‘Italy doesn’t want ICE? Go to hell.’

Milan, 30 January (LaPresse) – “It’s not just ICE: the US provides massive security assistance. If you don’t want it, we’ll take it away, since you’re freeloaders who take advantage of us. We shouldn’t send ICE, the FBI or DHS, so you wouldn’t have protection from all the bad guys and terrorists you’ve let in. Better that way, we’ll save money. In fact, let’s withdraw the team from the Milan-Cortina Games, I couldn’t care less. Quote me literally: fuck you. This is why Americans are tired of NATO. You have no infrastructure, no logistics, no military strength. Without us, you would have no defences, but you don’t appreciate anything we do for you.‘ So said Steve Bannon, former adviser to US President Donald Trump, in an interview with La Repubblica. Then a comment on Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni: ’She was fantastic, now she has become a total globalist. She played the EU game because she needed the money, and the NATO game. She talks a lot about Ukraine, but when it comes to sending funds and troops, she changes her tune. Frankly, I don’t think anything she says is relevant because she doesn’t have the economic and military resources to back it up. I don’t take her seriously anymore, and neither does anyone in the US.”
