Globalist George Soros Blames Russia for Rise of Anti-Immigration Populists in Italy June 4, 2018 ZeroHedge
Soros suggested that Russia is funding Matteo Salvini and the right-wing League party whose popularity has seen a dramatic rise because they have promised to to deport hundreds of thousands of migrants to neighboring liberal European countries. Soros’ solution is for the EU to pay off Italy instead of resettling the migrants. The League responded to Soros by saying that the wind has changed for him and for all of those who have profited from the deaths of hundreds of people.
A feud has broken out between liberal billionaire activist and fervent Clinton supporter, George Soros, and Italy’s anti-immigrant League party, which on Friday formed a populist movement in coalition with the 5-Star party, and whose leader Matteo Salvini stepped into his new job as Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of the Interior on Friday, pledging to deport hundreds of thousands of illegal immigrants.
Salvini’s League and the 5-Star Movement struck a deal Thursday on a coalition government which will work towards “putting Italians first” (and potentially making life for Europe a living hell with the ongoing threat of Quitaly, which according to JPMorgan may be Rome’s best outcome), ending five days of market volatility and political chaos.
In response, George Soros flipped out, openly suggesting that Salvini might be financed by Vladimir Putin, saying he is “very worried about Russia’s influence on Europe in general and on the new Italian government.”
“I do not know if Salvini was funded by Moscow, but the public has a right to know” said Soros.
Soros translated: Any government who puts their citizens ahead of migrants is now a Putin puppet.
The League’s economics policy chief, Claudio Borghi hit back against Soros, stating (translated):
Zitat “Soros worried by the Italian government? Then it means that we are going in the right direction… We understand that those who have speculated for years on the skin of immigrants, financing NGOs and smugglers to invade Italy.
“The wind has changed for [Soros] and for all those who have profited from the deaths of hundreds of people.“
