Merkel Demands EU States Resume Mediterranean Migrant Naval Pickup Mission,” by Chris Tomlinson, Breitbart, August 20, 2019

German Chancellor Angela Merkel has called on members of the European Union (EU) to resume rescuing migrants in the Mediterranean using naval vessels.

The German leader commented on the issue stating that it would be good to resume a mission like Operation Sophia, which was largely suspended in March of this year after huge resistance from the populist Italian government, Die Welt reports.

“Surely it would be good if we would again today have a mission Sophia so that government ships would save lives,” Merkel said.

In March, the EU announced the suspension of naval operations in the Mediterranean stating, “Member States have decided to extend the mandate of Operation Sophia for six months with a temporary suspension of its naval assets while member states continue working on a solution related to disembarkation.”

Earlier this year, Chancellor Merkel backed out of Operation Sophia due to populist Italian Interior Minister Matteo Salvini’s policy of keeping ports closed to illegal migrants.

Operation Sophia, which began in 2015 and saw tens of thousands of migrants rescued and largely transported to Italy, has been criticised by many, including the government of Libya, where many migrants attempt to access Europe from.

Libyan Foreign Minister Mohamad Taher Siala described his own opinion of Sophia saying, “I think this Sophia… it’s negative. It’s not positive. Simply because in part they encourage the migration.”

While Salvini’s tough anti-mass migration policies have led to a large fall in the number of drowning deaths in the region, the number of migrants attempting to cross the Mediterranean has begun to rise, along with the activity of migrant rescue NGOs.

Several NGOs, such as the German-based Sea-Watch, have challenged Salvini’s closed port policy with Sea Watch captain Carola Rackete forcing her vessel into a port and was arrested after docking. She, along with captain Pia Klemp, faces charges of aiding illegal migration.

I love Germany and the Germans but it's their curse that they always pick the wrong leaders. They should be turned into a Trizone again (this time without the Russians with the British and Americans dividing the Eastern zone) for their own safety until they can write a constitution that forever decentralises the country to such an extent that someone like Merkel would be unable to do any damage.



Let the Americans use the former Soviet zone and the French take over the former U.S zone.

heu,darling with all my respect neo-marxists if they still exist they have reunions in a phonebooth,at least the revolutionnary communist league is the nearest and they made at least 5% max,i mean at the left of the french communist party,there are few small parties,more in a travaillist line against "das kapital",but macron is more from the classic socialist left and he's more center left,he was minister of economy and industry while the previous socialist governement ,figure of speech, and he's neo-liberal for sure,but you could situated him more on the centre-left,and he was into the financial too ,working for the rothschild bank(it's also why he have a good english),he's even very rich,doing a lot of money while he was working for the financial,neo-marxist i don't think so,indeed he's neo-lib disguised in socialist

Neoliberals = neomarxists in my opinion ,darling is the complete opposite marxists are against the neo-liberalism,for the more honests of them, i mean the basic militant from the working class is not really capitalist friendly,when they saw than macron,thatcher,schroeder or similar are closing the factories and delocalisating ,they are not very happy,a part of the yellow vests are people who were fired,and very hungry of all the lies of macron,did i need remember you,the arcelor-mittal factory affair,one the best steel produced,the cars production in belgium,at vilvoorde,carlos ghon the gangster, for just taking a few examples of the impact of the neo-liberalism
you seem a smart educated girl ,but please don't confuse,liberalism and marxism
liberals are adepts of adam smith and john meynard keynes theories
marxists are adepts of karl marx,engels theories and the struggle of the classes

No, you're wrong. One can argue both are shit, but they are definitely not the same thing.
