Italy's leftists think they've found their Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez
The coalition has, for example, taken an ambiguous position on migration: So far, the parties have failed to find an agreement onhing Salvini's flagship immigration policy banning NGO rescue ships from entering Italian waters. The government also recently renewed a deal with the abusive Libyan coast guard to block migrants from setting sail. Schlein has called for both measures to be slashed.
"She's the Italian version of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez," said Emiliana De Blasio, a professor at Luiss University in Rome. But Schlein is under no illusion that her positions are universally popular in Italy, where the far right's hard-line stance on issues such as immigration continues to dominate. "Of course, the right wing's stances are popular, inequalities have increased, people's fears are real and we have to listen to them," she said.video
