Rome, 18 Oct. (LaPresse) – “I served as Minister of the Interior; I know how difficult it is to maintain public order. My thoughts and solidarity go out to the police officers and Carabinieri who were injured and are still in hospital today. We will certainly need greater prevention measures and a greater police presence. And also greater freedom of action for the police, whilst always respecting the rules and regulations. I am talking about the power of water cannons, I am talking about Tasers, and I am talking about the fact that the justice system should play its part.” This was stated by the Deputy Prime Minister and leader of the Lega, Matteo Salvini, in an interview with Rds, commenting on the remarks made by the Mayor of Milan, Beppe Sala, who had said this morning that the number of law enforcement officers deployed in Milan yesterday was insufficient.
