意大利批准了一揽子全面安全措施,其中包括对在示威中实施暴力行为判处监禁、加重对暴乱者的处罚,以及让实施破坏和抢劫的未成年人的父母承担经济责任。这些措施是在意大利北部城市周末发生骚乱后出台的,将立即生效。
Italy has approved a sweeping package of security measures, including prison terms for violent participation in demonstrations, tougher penalties for rioters and financial liability for parents whose children engage in vandalism and looting. The measures come after weekend unrest in northern Italian cities and will take effect immediately.
总理焦尔贾·梅洛尼周二宣布了该法令,她为这项打击行动辩护称,破坏公私财物和盗窃不能被辩解为抗议形式。“破坏公私财物和盗窃没有任何革命性可言。破坏公私财物和盗窃不是抗议,它们是犯罪,”梅洛尼在社交媒体帖子中写道。焦尔贾·梅洛尼在X平台上新规规定,任何人参加至少五人的团体并在示威期间危害公共安全,最高可判处五年监禁并处以最高2万欧元(约合22460美元)罚款。如果抗议者遮挡面部或造成人员受伤,处罚将更重。
Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni announced the decree on Tuesday, defending the crackdown by saying that vandalism and theft could not be justified as forms of protest." There is nothing revolutionary about vandalising and stealing. Vandalism and theft are not protest, they are criminality," Meloni said in a social media post.
