Скачать или смотреть Salvini: German NGO ship should go to Hamburg

(4 Apr 2019) Italian Interior Minister Matteo Salvini says he won't offer safe harbour to 64 migrants rescued off Libya by the German humanitarian group Sea Eye, and that the rescue ship should "go to Hamburg".
The hard-line interior minister said that his ministry sent a formal letter on Thursday to the German government telling them the ship cannot dock in Italy and asking them to intervene.
Salvini, who is in France for a Group of Seven meeting of Interior Ministers to try to find ambitious solutions to international security challenges, said he also delivered that message in person to a German government minister at the G-7 meeting.
Sea-Eye's ship, the Alan Kurdi, rescued the migrants on Wednesday near Libya after Libyan authorities could not be reached.
It did so as it was looking for another smuggling boat with 50 migrants that has been missing since Monday and 40 other migrants missing at sea since last week.
Sea Eye is asking Italy or Malta to open a port to the ship.
Salvini said the Alan Kurdi, like other private rescue ships before it, won't be welcome in Italy.
