"Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, I intend to speak about the Lyon-Turin high-speed rail link, for which the EU is to provide a contribution of EUR 672 million.
This contribution was linked to certain conditions. The first was consultation with and approval by local communities, which, however, have never been heard on the substance of the problem – quite the opposite, they have recently been repressed by the downright militarisation of the Val di Susa, which is the area of this tunnel.
The second condition related to certain deadlines for the start of work, deadlines that have instead been arbitrarily delayed several times. To date the only works carried out in the area have been a fortified enclosure holding the 900 police who are supposed to control people and keep them away. Under these highly illegal conditions, for the EU to provide the planned contribution would amount to no more than giving in to a scam perpetrated by the Italian Government and the Piedmont regional government and by the lobbies that influence them heavily. ‘
Bandits!
