00:00Today's intervention was, in my opinion, documented,
00:05which is the most important thing for an intervention.
00:07We have documented that, even if we counted
00:10Minister Salvini and the kidnapping of people,
00:12in reality, on board the Open Arms,
00:14the migrants were in the middle of the sea for 14 days,
00:18while they could safely land in Spain in two days.
00:23Above all, I think we have documented
00:26that there were innumerable possibilities to leave.
00:31There was no kidnapping of people.
00:34Open Arms, in reality, has refused a series of options,
00:38a series of solutions.
00:40I think it has been quite evident,
00:44because we have cited emails,
00:46so I have not interpreted facts.
00:48I have cited documents.
00:50Several times, several times,
00:52Italy has offered Open Arms the possibility to disembark,
00:57to disembark for any reason.
01:00Well, it has always been said no.
01:03This is the problem.
01:04Salvini has refused, but who said no?
01:06Open Arms.
01:08Senator, you have used the word
01:10bighelonare several times.
01:11Don't you think it's a bit harsh
01:13when it comes to migrants in the sea?
01:15He knows he didn't follow the ring,
01:17because the word bighelonare,
01:19the authorised Malta,
01:21Malta writes emails to Open Arms
01:25in which it says, dear Montes,
01:27why are you bigheloning?
01:29He knows the acts of the trial,
01:31he wouldn't do such a thing.
01:33Senator, do you think this is a political trial?
01:36Many colleagues of your party
01:38claim that a part of the Magistrate
01:40is in some way politicised.
01:42No, no, no, no, no.
01:44For me, it is a political trial
01:46from another point of view.
01:48Since Open Arms has been offered
01:50several times the possibility
01:52of an escape route,
01:54it has been offered several times
01:56the possibility to get the migrants out,
01:58and it has been continuously said
02:00that these migrants could not get out.
02:02Instead, they could get out.
02:04We asked ourselves why,
02:06and the answer was given to us by Oscar Campos.
02:08Oscar Campos, in a video
02:10that you can watch,
02:12says that in the end they were happy,
02:14but not because they were getting out,
02:16but because the Minister Salvini had fallen.
02:18So, according to them,
02:20it was a battle against Salvini.
02:22Is this why it is a political trial?
02:24It is a political trial
02:26when it is said that
02:28the real joy of Open Arms
02:30is the fall of Salvini,
02:32who is a very important man.
02:34But the fall of the rich,
02:36so many of them,
02:38has actually poisoned the climate.
02:40Look, the climate in this room,
02:42as you have seen,
02:44has been a climate of respect.
02:46I have total respect for the Ministry.
02:48There will never be,
02:50in my defense,
02:52a word of repose.
02:54There has never been any result in the square.
02:56To show solidarity
02:58seems to me to be
03:00only a desire by some
03:02members of the parliamentary party
03:04to stay close to Salvini.
03:06The last time
03:08that I had the possibility
03:10to get the migrants out
03:12of Open Arms
03:14was only to go to Medusa.
03:16What other possibilities have been offered?
