Leftwing politicians should stop
allegedly justifying violence, Premier Giorgia Meloni said after
some 15 police were hospitalised after being hit by an
improvised explosive device at a student anti-government protest
in Turin Friday.
"Even today we witnessed unacceptable scenes of violence and
chaos in some squares, by the usual troublemakers," she said on
social media.
"Several law enforcement officers ended up in the emergency room
due to explosive devices and clashes.
"My total solidarity goes to all the injured officers, with the
hope of a speedy recovery.
"I hope that certain politicians stop protecting or justifying
this violence and unambiguously join in condemning such serious
and unworthy episodes".
