A diplomatic war of words has broken out between France and Italy with President Emmanuel Macron being on the receiving end of massive criticism over their actions in Africa and on Immigration. The spat started when vice-premier Luigi De Maio accused France of destabilising and plundering North Africa for its own gains.
This then led to the Italian Ambassador being summoned to meet the French Foreign Ministry to accuse them of engaging in aggressive and untruthful rhetoric. Premier Salvini enjoys massive popularity in Italy and is credited with stopping huge numbers of migrants making the crossing across the Mediterranean which is saving lives and keeping Italy safe.
The crux of the argument is that France benefits disproportionately from the instability in Libya in order to receive cheap oil whilst Italy has to then deal with the brunt of the migrant crisis caused by the instability.

Meanwhile embattled President Macron is on a trip to Egypt where he mocked Salvini’s Government saying: “The Italian people are our friends and deserve leaders who live up to their history.” He then also sarcastically quipped and wished Italy’s coalition “good luck” in agitating against him and France.
Macron has also been universally mocked over his support for the uprising taking place in Venezuela with many commenting that while he is supporting revolutionaries in Venezuela he has used the full might of the French security apparatus to crush. His approval ratings continue to stand at historic lows for any French leader.
One prominent Italian Minister has said that a new order is set to emerge in Europe with Salvini taking the helm. He said: “Just as Merkel was Europe’s guide for many years, now it will be Salvini. Everyone will have to talk to Salvini. His leadership will no longer be just Italian, but European too.”
