00:00The news of today is this. The prosecutor of the Republic, Francesco Lovoi,
00:05the same of the, let's say, the failed trial of Matteo Salvini for the kidnapping of a person,
00:12has just sent me a warrant for the crimes of favoritism and peculation
00:19in relation to the story of the repatriation of the Libyan citizen to Masri.
00:26A warrant has also been sent to the ministers Carlo Nordio and Matteo Piantedosi
00:32and to the undersecretary Alfredo Mantovano, I presume following a complaint
00:36that was presented by the lawyer Luigi Ligotti, a former left-wing politician,
00:40very close to Romano Prodi, known for having defended Pentiti
00:44of the caliber of Buscetta, Brusca and other mafiosi.
00:48Now, the facts, we have talked about them in these days, are quite well known.
00:52The International Criminal Court, after months of reflection,
00:55issues an international arrest warrant against the head of the judicial police of Tripoli.
01:00Curiously, the court does so just when this person was about to enter the Italian territory
01:06after he had serenely stayed for about 12 days in three other European states.
01:13The request for arrest of the International Criminal Court
01:17has not been sent to the Italian Ministry of Justice,
01:20as is intended by the law, and for this reason the Court of Appeal of Rome
01:24decides not to proceed with its conviction.
01:27At this point, with this subject free on the Italian territory,
01:31rather than releasing him, we decide to expel him and repatriate him immediately
01:39for reasons of security, with a special flight, as happens in other similar cases.
01:44This is the reason for which the Prosecutor's Office of Rome
01:47today is investigating me, the Deputy Secretary Mantovano and two ministers.
01:53I think that today is worth what it was worth yesterday.
01:57I am not reprehensible, I do not want to be intimidated.
02:00It is possible that for this reason, let's say,
02:03it is aimed at those who do not want Italy to change and become better,
02:07but also and above all for this reason I intend to continue on my path
02:11in defense of the Italians, especially when the security of the nation is at stake and without fear.
