Rome: Yet another Pledge

Juni 4, 2017 Published by: RF

Virginia Raggi, the mayor of Rome has pledged to close the Roma camps around Rome after having secured funds from the EU.
Nice, but since she has been elected she has repeated that pledge several times, and has even opened a new camp. So wait and see. Facts are more important that words.
