Matteo Salvini himself will sign the invitations: the conference “The new forms of anti-Semitism”, which will take place on Thursday, January 16, in the Zuccari room of Palazzo Giustiniani is an important appointment for the League leader. Among the guests there will also be Liliana Segre, but given that the invitations will only start in the next few hours, for the moment it is not known whether the senator for life will or will want to participate. The League secretary on this conference wants to be as institutional as possible, and so among the addressees of the invitation, there will also be Riccardo Fraccaro, who as the undersecretary of the Prime Minister is also the president of the Coordination Committee for the celebrations in memory of the Shoah . Furthermore, other institutional calls are not excluded in the League. And among the speakers will be some important international figures who study the resurgence of anti-Semitism in many European countries.

Salvini’s goal is, his say, “Clarify once and for all”. The goal is that of “a serious event, capable of offering new scientific perspectives on the subject” and also “cutting the grass underfoot to those who exploit the positions of the League on this subject, archenemics of all forms of anti-Semitism ». More: “Anti-Semitism for the League is a priority theme”.

In fact, it was precisely the meeting with Liliana Segre, which took place on November 8 but never officially confirmed by Matteo Salvini to push the League leader to organize the conference a few days before the Memorial Day of January 27. It will be the only event that will stop his marathon for the Regionals. The face to face with the survivor in Auschwitz would have greatly affected Salvini. However, the vote on the commission against anti-Semitism wanted by Segre had seen the abstention of the League (indeed, of the entire center-right). But to Salvini, who had also claimed abstention because a “gag” wording would turn the saying “before the Italians” into racism, that vote was weighted.

Since he is secretary of the League one of the central objectives of his international relations was recognition by Israel, which culminated 13 months ago with the meeting with Bibi Netanhyau who called him “a great friend” of the Jewish state. Not for nothing, Foreign Minister Ysrael Katz met him confidentially on his trip to Italy last December.
