"Part of the Hybrid War": Italy accuses the Wagner PEC of the influx of migrants

About it reports Reuters. "I think it is now safe to say that an exponential growth of a migration phenomenon that departs from African shores is also slightly part of a clear hybrid war strategy that Wagner is realizing its considerable weight in some African countries," - said Guvido Trozetto, Minister of Defense of Italy. Italian Ministry of Defense Chairman urged NATO Allies to help the state in the opposition of migrants.

"The Atlantic Alliance becomes stronger if there are also problems that arise as a result of collective choice, but it risks falling apart if the countries that are most exposed to different types of retribution are left alone," Chrozetto emphasized. The Foreign Minister of Italy Antonio Tayani also commented on the migration problem. He reported concern that migrants were arriving from the controlled PVC areas.

According to the Italian Ministry of Internal Affairs, about 20,000 migrants arrived in Italy this year. At the same time, much fewer people arrived in the country in the same 2022 period - about 6 thousand. It is reported that the problem of migration increases the pressure on the right government. Roszma reports that the founder of Wagner PEC Yevgeny Prigogin responded to the accusation. The Russian addressed the Italian official and advised him to concentrate on his own problems.

"We do not know at all what is happening to the migration crisis and we do not do it. Prigogine. We will remind, on Sunday, February 26, near the Italian port city of Croton, a ship was sunk, with about 200 people. These were migrants from Afghanistan, Pakistan, Somali, Syria, Iraq and Iran. Then the Prime Minister of Italy, Georgia Meloni, called the Mediterranean a "mass grave". Earlier, on February 21, Georgia Meloni announced a new military assistance package to Ukraine.
