AGI News On - IMMIGRANTS: MARONI, WE'RE KINDER THAN THE VATICAN
(AGI) - Orvieto (Terni), 24 July - Minister of the Interior Roberto Maroni defended the new law on immigration and told the Church, which criticised him, that
"We did a good job reviving legality, and we were insulted and compared to Hitler's racist laws. Our law is similar to that of other European countries. Even the Vatican prescribes imprisonment for illegal aliens, it's a law that works very well for them. But we're kinder, we only provided a fine, an ancillary sanction because we don't want to send people to jail, we want to send them home".
