Italy's government fears new youth security measures may be ignored by courts

Italy's government fears new security measures targeting minors may be disregarded by the judiciary, potentially rendering them ineffective. Premier Giorgia Meloni expressed concern about possible further urban violence following last Saturday's riots in Milan, Turin, Bologna, and Bergamo. The government approved a tough decree on Tuesday, including stricter rules for minors, which sparked friction with the Quirinale. A proposed measure to compel social media platforms to share violence-related information with police remains pending. Meloni also criticized those calling cannabis derivatives "light drugs," noting THC levels are now 30 times higher than decades ago. FDI's report targets left-wing figures like Ilaria Salis, Marco Grimaldi, Raffaele Giuliani, and Pier Francesco Majorino. The government suspects hidden orchestration behind the protests and has deployed 500 Folgore soldiers to Milan, hoping Saturday passes without incident.
