E' necessario attuare con urgenza un progetto di desegregazione e inclusione dei Rom nella Capitale
At the meeting of the Associations Arpj-Roof, Popice, Arci Roma Antica Sartoria and EveryOne Group with the Prefect of Rome
Rome, October 27, 2008.
Dear Sir,
EveryOne Group has noted in recent years, especially over the last 12 months, an escalation of racism and brutality against the Roma families have taken refuge in Rome and especially in respect of Roma from Romania. A political and media campaign, which started in the immediacy of the entry of Romania into the European Union and continued until today, has sown racial hatred towards the Roma people, enabling the authorities to implement a real ethnic cleansing, despite the resolution European Parliament of 15 November 2007 on the implementation of Directive 2004/38/EC, the warnings of the European Commission and the United Nations, the stigma of the Italian political persecution by the whole civilized world. In recent days the authority of Rome, regardless of the recent visit of the Delegation of the European Commission Jacques Barrot and the letter to Interior Minister Roberto Maroni, have stepped up repressive operations, evacuating twenty microinsediamenti on the banks of the Tiber and elsewhere in the capital and putting in the road dozens of families of ethnic Roma people, children, pregnant women and sick also very serious. During these operations police, no social-health assistance is been guaranteed to the evicted, who were driven from their miserable shelters with a cynical inhumanity. Children in groups, cancer patients, people with disabilities, heart disease and major illnesses have been forced to set out without means of subsistence, without blankets or essential medicines to nowhere, in the tragic death marches, unworthy of any civilized country or city. If the fate of the city of Rome has to offer Roma from Romania is so inhumane, even the Italian Roma, those from the former Yugoslavia and the "stateless" is not treated in a respectful of basic rights. The few "Roma camps" remained in Rome are real ghettos, where the institutions have deliberately avoided di fornire servizi igienici e sociali necessari alla vita. Contemporaneamente, in spregio alle norme internazionali che tutelano i popoli, gli abitanti di tali insediamenti sono stati costantemente intimiditi, umiliati, abusati nei loro diritti a perseguire un'esistenza dignitosa. Criminalizzati attraverso dichiarazioni di autorità irresponsabili, diffuse dai media locali e nazionali, gli abitanti dei campi si sono trovati senza alcuna opportunità di sussistenza e le lorro condizioni - verificate da delegazioni europee - sono quelle di topi o scarafaggi. "Sono come i topi," ha affermato infatti, qualche tempo fa, l'esponente di uno dei partiti di governo, "solo che è più difficile disinfestare le città dalla loro presenza". La speranza average life of the Roma camps in the capital does not reach the age of 40, while bacterial infections, fungal and viral diseases and rampant insecurity wiped out by children, women and men. About the "nomads" who have sought refuge in Rome, coming from difficult situations in Romania, it is sufficient to note that a year ago were about 6 000, while today, because of persecution, a few hundred are: human beings in a state of social dramatic and precarious, even worse - as pointed out by the Red Cross - that in the poorest and most troubled African states. MEP Viktoria Mohacsi pronounced the following words, after visiting microinsediamenti and fields, in Rome and other Italian cities: "I have traveled throughout Europe and have watched the Roma community in all EU countries, but nowhere I have seen with my own eyes so serious a situation of marginalization and persecution of my people. I hope that the example Italian, which can be compared only to racial persecution that occurred in the Third Reich, not propagete never in European Union countries. "
EveryOne Group can not but share the comments bitterly dell'europarlamentare Hungarian and once again asks you, dear Mr. Prefect Carlo Mosca - and with you, it calls on all authorities in Rome - to immediately suspend the operations of police evacuation of the few Romanians Roma settlements remained in the city, providing ad attivare con urgenza piani di sostegno per le famiglie che vivono in essi, in condizioni tragiche. Tali piani dovranno iniziare con l'assistenza socio-sanitaria, la predisposizione repentina di piani di alloggio, la concessione di sussidi alle persone gravemente malate o inabili. Quindi, quando le famiglie - unite - potranno contare sul diritto a un tetto sulla testa, alla salute e alla sicurezza, si potranno attivare programmi di inserimento professionale e scolastico. Per quanto riguarda i campi Rom, invece, il Gruppo EveryOne chiede che siano immediatamente interrotte le misure poliziesche di controllo e repressione, che presentano le famiglie perseguitate, agli occhi dei cittadini romani, come "associazioni per delinquere" e non come persone rifdotte in condizioni desperate because of racial hatred, the violence of racist movements, of negligence and brutality, inhumane institutions and authorities. So when will restore dignity to the inhabitants of the camps and when the truth of racial repression will result, you can start programs of accommodation and integration, looking as much as possible to match the demands of families who are victims of persecution.
EveryOne Group puts at your disposal, Your Excellency, as well as other institutions and authorities, its experience and its network of activists, experts and international specialists to help the city of Rome to implement the necessary change, is putting outstanding educational programs to combat racism (directed to citizens, schools, but also - and this is a priority - to the police), is cooperating in the organization of effective desegregation projects and social inclusion. Grateful
attention, waiting for an answer and I offer cordial greetings
