"If Europe does not arrive, we as the Italian Government as a whole are gathering legal documentation so that the European Court in Strasbourg can unblock this act of unilateral arrogance and violence on the part of the Austrian Government. And since, for years, there have been confrontations, conversations, requests, requests, written and counterwritten that have failed, now is the time to adopt extreme measures. If we are required to go, even physically, along with the employees on the Brenner to check who enters and who exits, as the Austrians do, we do so with no problems". These are the remarks of Matteo Salvini, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Infrastructure and Transport, who responded yesterday to Vienna authorities' steps that prohibited the transit of Italian transporters to Austria.
