Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni’s recent statement has sparked controversy after expressing concerns about the lack of bonding between Islamic culture and European civilization. The statement was made during a meeting of the ruling conservative party in Italy, ‘Brothers of Italy’.
During the meeting, Prime Minister Meloni, along with British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak and Albanian Prime Minister Edi Rama, discussed the increasing number of refugees from foreign countries, particularly from Africa. They also discussed the creation of a public fund for the repatriation of refugees to their home countries.
A video of Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni’s speech was released on social media, in which he stated, “There is no adhesion, i.e. bond, between Islamic culture or certain Islamic culture and the rights and values given by our European civilization. This is a huge problem.” He also raised concerns about the funding of Islamic cultural centers in Italy, mainly from Saudi Arabia, and the strict Sharia law practiced in the country.
Meloni emphasized that raising such issues should not be seen as anti-Islam, but rather an attempt to address the problem of Islamization in Europe that goes beyond their culture. This sentiment echoes similar concerns expressed by political leaders in European countries like Poland and the Netherlands, who have also raised concerns about the potential infiltration of terrorists among illegal immigrants.
The statement has sparked a contentious debate, with some criticizing the Italian Prime Minister for stoking Islamophobia, while others have expressed support for the concerns raised about the integration of Islamic culture and European civilization. As the controversy continues to unfold, it remains to be seen how this will impact relations between Italy and Islamic communities within Europe.
