Italy did not allow the Israeli cargo ship of ZIM to the Israeli cargo ship at the port of Genoa – saying that the load of weapons is on board. Despite this statement, the ship was not at all lucky. This became known on Tuesday, September 30.
“Here is the proof of how the pro-Palestinian protests beat the Italian economy,” said Israel’s ambassador to Italy, Yoni Fel, sharply criticizing the decision.
Fel צ d explained that the ship was blocked in Livorno due to the protest of trade unions: “There were Italian goods for transportation in the United States on board. As a result, the ship left the port without cargo. These missiles are not related to solidarity at all – they cause direct damage to the national interests of Italy and its competitiveness.”
In addition, the Israeli ambassador to Italy talked with the Minister of Internal Affairs of Italy and with the head of the Livorno police. The embassy also turned to the Left Deputies of the Parliament, and attempts were made to put pressure on the Port trade union with the support of a universal working organization in the country.
At the same time, last week, in a speech at a session of the UN General Assembly, Meloni collapsed with attacks on Israel and expressed the most stringent criticism from the beginning of the war. She accused Netanyahu of the “massacre of civilians” and also said that Italy would vote for the introduction of sanctions against individual Israeli figures.
At the same time, in her speech, Meloni said that “Israel has disproportionately acts in gas and violated humanitarian norms, but we will not join those who have responsible for him. Hamas is the one who can release hostages and put an end to the war.” She added that the country recognizes the Palestinian state only if the hostages are liberated and Hamas will not participate in power.
