“I was sorry that the opposition abstained on the vote on the regional plan for interventions on emigration for 2024-2026. I believe that it is a theme that qualifies us abroad and that Ligurians who leave our region for study or work can testify to the richness of Liguria’s culture and tradition even outside national borders while remaining in contact with our community. I find it enriching that, for example, our young people who go to work abroad can then return to our territory, giving back to their homeland what they have learned in their experience outside the region”. So in a note Sonia Viale, deputy group leader of the League in the Liguria Region.
“We have many examples of people – he continues – who after years have decided to return to their territory of origin to make use of what they have learned abroad, just as we accompany those who come to work here and when they decide to return on this journey to their country we are proud that they can bring a piece of Liguria to their territories of origin. Today, in the chamber, the opposition asked us to explain how we in the League can support those who have emigrated if we are then against immigration in our country. country, but comparing our emigration, governed by work permits, to irregular immigration, which is what the League does not want, is a criticism that does not stand up arrives in our country without having a residence permit, without having a job and above all without escaping from wars and persecution. It is no coincidence that on these issues all the other countries of the European Union also adopt policies that govern entry into their territories”.
“Not losing your roots – concludes Viale – and maintaining a connection with your land of origin by also supporting Ligurian associations around the world is also essential to have new opportunities for cultural, economic and social development”.
