(ANSA) - ROME, NOV 13 - President Sergio Mattarella was right to say Italy can take care of itself after Elon Musk criticized a Rome court's decision to nix the detention of a second batch of migrants subjected to Italy's controversial policy of taking migrants to be processed in Albania, Cabinet Undersecretary Giovanbattista Fazzolari said on Wednesday.
    But Fazzolari, a Senator for Premier Giorgia Meloni's right-wing Brothers of Italy (FdI), added that interference should always be rejected no matter where it comes from.
    "It is right and proper that the President of the Republic, the head of the judiciary and guarantor of the Constitution, should make his voice heard," Fazzolari told ANSA.
    "Italy can look after itself. We do not need foreign interference from other governments, NGOs, or big media organizations.
    "This is always true for Brothers of Italy with anyone.
    "It is surprising though, that the Left turn out to be on-and-off nationalists, invoking external interference against this government and being scandalized when a person like Musk, who is not currently in office in any government, comments on Italian affairs". (ANSA).
