Lollobrigida, 'demonstrating is lawful but preventing the distribution of goods is a crime'

"Demonstrating is legitimate and worthy of respect... blocking the roads to prevent products from being distributed is a crime. I respect everyone's requests, but I consider it serious and intolerable that millions of Italians risk, due to road blocks, seeing shops without goods or with much higher prices which worsen the condition of many families. I invite you to guarantee circulation and supplies".

Thus in a social post the Minister of Agriculture, Food Sovereignty and Forestry, Francesco Lollobrigida. "Causing harm to others to protect one's own positions is not right. Many products present on trucks, stopped against the will of those who drive them, will be unusable, causing economic damage to businesses, workers in the sector and all citizens.

There is never any justification in violating laws and, above all, in harming other citizens."
