The Minister of Defense, Guido Crosetto, clarifies his position on the Judiciary. «Mine was not an attack on the judiciary, for which I have deep respect – Crosetto explained in Parliament – but a concern with some trends that I see clearly emerging and which are worth reflecting on. Listening to some congresses from some branches of the judiciary, there is a perception of an attack, but this is a problem that must be resolved because all institutional bodies must function freely and no one should feel attacked. That’s precisely why some statements worried me.” So did the Minister of Defense, Guido Crosetto, during an urgent briefing to the Chamber.
And further: «I think it is legitimate for us to ask ourselves and define, with this Parliament and not with the government, the rules within which the powers of the State compare, interact and function: representation belongs to politics – continues Crosetto – Representation It does not belong to the Judiciary or even to the Executive: according to the Constitution it belongs to this Chamber and the Senate, it belongs to Parliament”.
