Coronavirus: Today the decision on the new military close to Milan in the street – Politics

A new squeeze on Coronavirus contrast measures should arrive later today. The decision of Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte is expected by the hour: the rules would specify the last Dpcm therefore, according to government sources, could be included not in a new Presidential Decree but in a more streamlined corrective measure. Among the measures under consideration there would be stop to outdoor physical activity, the stop to supermarkets in shopping malls on the weekend, the stop to move to second homes. Palazzo Chigi specifies however that “supermarkets, hypermarkets and grocery stores will remain open during the weekend”.

Checks for all cars on the road, after queuing, and no longer only random checks. This is what the local police of Rome ordered as part of the checks on the prescriptions to contain the coronavirus. The new mode of checks will start tomorrow “and until further notice”

With the remodeling of the services, decided this morning in the Provincial Committee for the Order and Public Safety, with the presence of the regional councilors Riccardo De Corato and Pietro Foroni, according to the indications of the Minister of the Interior, 114 military units from the Army of Safe Roads will be directly employed to control measures to contain the spread of the COVID-19 virus. The Prefecture of Milan makes it known

For the governor Fontana the military disposed by the Prefecture are still few: “One of the requests I made yesterday, namely that related to the use of the army, was accepted, albeit in a certainly limiting way: we talk about 114 military personnel, which means practically nothing – he said -. At least one zero must be added to that figure to seriously discuss the problem, but it is positive that my request has been accepted. “” We had our usual meeting with the mayors and we decided to prepare a list of requests that are compatible with the our possibilities, with our skills, which we will advance to the Prime Minister. If disregarded, we will take steps that we have established to be joint to limit these activities that we believe are incompatible “Fontana said.

Fontana explained that “limitations to physical activity will be requested, the stop of all activities in offices and professional offices, on construction sites, in commercial activities, and the evaluation of the supply chains which can be considered absolutely extraneous with those essential for the activity of the our region ”

“I still hear people jogging, getting together, leaving home without good reason. I ask them all and ask for further sacrifice and a sense of respect. This is a critical moment if we want to break the contagion curve.” So the minister for relations with Parliament Federico D’Inca ‘at Uno matt on Radio Rai.

An appeal for responsibility also comes from the president of the Fico Chamber, which applauds collaboration between political forces. “Yesterday at the group leader I saw maximum collaboration as on the budget shift. I hope that this collaboration continues and I am sure it must continue. We must be united more than ever in an emergency that involves everyone. We are simple servants of the state” said Roberto Fico on Radio24. “I am convinced that this epidemic should be fought with the seriousness and responsibility of all Italian citizens, a united people who fight. Today most of them act in a wonderful way and I thank them. Those who do not respect the rules must do it”. “I am for public health. Public health has been plundered over the years, we have to start from public health, enhance it with adequate public spending. We have few places in intensive care because of the cuts and we have to increase it” says Fico.

The leader of Forza Italia Silvio Berlusoni he holds out his hand and talks about cooperation. “From serious, responsible opposition, today our task is to cooperate. Later, after the emergency is over, we will discuss mistakes if mistakes have been made. “” We are at war and in these moments we all huddle around those who govern. There have been delays but it is not the time for controversy. We ask for more restrictive measures, especially in Lombardy. Then more support for the economy that is likely to collapse. we ask the government to do more on that front. “” We will do it but we must prepare for very difficult months: the government must live up to the Italians and prepare for the recovery ”

For the political leader of Italia Viva, Matteo Renzi disagrees with the reduction in shop hours. “These are not easy days. We need a lot of lucidity. I invite those who have responsibility to decide without chasing moods but following common sense. Reducing shop hours only creates more problems: more crowds, more queues, more infections. Let’s help each other and together we’ll make it”.

The President of the Lombardy Region Attilio Fontana spoke with the President of the Mattarella Republic about the use of the military in Lombardy. “I think so”, that the army in Lombardy is necessary, “the presence of the military has a great deterrent effect, perhaps before going down the street if he sees an army patrol pass he has some second thoughts” said the governor Fontana in connection with Mattino Cinque, speaking of the respect of the prohibitions to limit the contagion from Coronavirus. “I was talking about this morning with the President of the Republic, I asked him to commit himself to making sure that the protocols are applied more rigorously“. That of closing some production sectors and industrial sectors in Lombardy” is a decision that must be taken within the weekend because the previous Dpcm expires. And then we must try to respect the current rules “said the president of the Lombardy Region.” This is a choice that cannot be taken by me, I spoke about it yesterday with President Conte and I submitted to him the evaluation of some supply chains. The difficulty of closing production activities is that they are chains so interconnected that there is the risk that, going to close something that apparently has no connections, there is the risk of affecting one of the chains that cannot be touched – concluded Fontana – such as food, pharmaceutical, energy. It is certainly a difficult choice. We are evaluating this hypothesis. ”

Dad at the beginning of the mass of Santa Marta this morning asked to pray for doctors and authorities. “We pray for the authorities, that it is not easy for them to manage this moment, and many times they suffer from misunderstandings,” he added. “Both the doctors, the hospital staff, the health volunteers, and the authorities at the moment are columns that help us move forward and defend us in this crisis. We pray for them”, concluded Francesco.
