    • 2018 October 15, The Editorial Board, “Migranti, gendarmerie “scarica” due persone in territorio italiano. Farnesina chiede spiegazioni, Parigi: “Errore” [Migrants, gendarmerie "drops off" two people into Italian territory. Farnesina demands an explanation, Paris: "Mistake"]”, in il Fatto Quotidiano:
      “Sono in attesa di sviluppi: non voglio credere che la Francia di Macron utilizzi la propria polizia per scaricare di nascosto gli immigrati in Italia”, ha commentato Salvini. “Ma se qualcuno pensa davvero di usarci come il campo profughi d’Europa, violando leggi, confini e accordi, si sbaglia di grosso. Siamo pronti a difendere l’onore e la dignità del nostro Paese in ogni sede e a tutti i livelli. Pretendiamo chiarezza, soprattutto da chi ci fa la predica ogni giorno, e non guarderemo in faccia a nessuno”, ha aggiunto il vicepremier leghista.
      "I am waiting on further developments: I do not want to believe that Macron's France is using its police force to secretly drop off immigrants into Italy", commented Salvini. "But if someone really thought of using us as Europe's refugee camp, thereby violating laws, borders, and agreements, they have another think coming. We are ready to defend the honor and the dignity of our country wherever and at whatever level we need to. We demand clarity, especially from the people who lecture us every day , and we will not be afraid to stand up to anyone," added the League Vice President.
