The Global Compact for Safe, Orderly and Regular Migration is set to be formally adopted at the UN Conference in Morocco on 10-11 December.
But, as President Trump said when speaking before the UN on 25 September, “Migration should not be governed by an international body unaccountable to our own citizens,” and Gianluca Savoini, a member of Italy’s Lega party, has said much the same on Friday.
He believes that Italy should not sign the UN Global Migration Pact that threatens the country’s sovereignty and the nation’s cultural and religious identity.
Several other EU countries, including Austria, Czech Republic, Croatia and Poland, have joined the United States and Hungary in not joining the future agreement.
The Marrakech declaration, as its called, would block any criticism of mass migration, ban political parties opposing it and make migration a human right so no country could ever oppose it.
Savoini, president of the Lombardia-Russia Cultural Association, told reporters on Friday: “I hope Italy will not sign this agreement, because, as US President [Donald] Trump says, we must defend our identity and our culture from the invasion of economic immigrants.
We must give a strong and clear signal to human traffickers that we will no longer accept this shameful trafficking. These are decisive years for our European nations. We want to remain Europeans and Christians”.
