Crimea? No, Venezia! Referendum per l'indipendenza in EU passa quasi inosservato
Mentre il referendum Crimea cime titoli dei media mondiali, un tentativo di secessione sta succedendo in Veneto, l'Italia, con la sua città principale di Venezia. Ma come viene praticamente ignorata dai media, persone in Europa sono difficilmente consapevoli di ciò che sta accadendo accanto.
" Vuoi dire l'indipendenza della Crimea? ", dice un residente di Berlino, quando di RT Irina Galushko gli chiede di cosa ne pensa del referendum in corso in Veneto, Italia, dove le persone stanno votando per decidere se staccarsi da Roma. " No, mi rifugio 't sentito di essa "è stata la risposta più comune Galushko ricevuto. L'referendum on line nella provincia settentrionale italiana è stata lanciata la Domenica, il giorno stesso della maggior parte delle persone in Crimea voted sì alla secessione da Ucraina e l'adesione della Russia. Ma a differenza del referendum di Crimea, il Veneto ha non del tutto si è trovata sotto i riflettori dei media. Tuttavia, circa 3,8 milioni di elettori eleggibili residenti in Veneto saranno ora in grado, fino a Venerdì, per dire se vorrebbero vedere la regione indipendente, sovrano e la Repubblica federativa del Veneto. Veneto è una delle province più grandi e più ricche in Italia con una popolazione di oltre 5 milioni di persone. Una delle principali ragioni del voto è che la regione è stanco del peso massacrante delle tasse imposte da Roma. " Vorremmo continuare i rapporti economici con l'Italia , "Lodovico Pizzati, il portavoce del movimento indipendentista, ha detto a RT. " Ma da un punto di vista fiscale c'è un enorme divario tra ciò che paghiamo in tasse e ciò che riceviamo servizio come pubblico. Stiamo parlando di una differenza di 20 miliardi . " Gli ultimi sondaggi, il che suggerisce che circa il 65 per cento della popolazione è a favore di diventare indipendenti, hanno incoraggiato i leader del movimento di indipendenza al fine di avere il destino della regione ha deciso. " Dobbiamo combattere per essa [l'indipendenza] , "Giovanni Dalla Valle, capo del movimento per l'indipendenza del Veneto, ha detto a RT. " Lo faremo in una tranquilla via diplomatica. Noi crediamo fermamente che quando la maggioranza vuole essere indipendente non c'è nulla che [il governo italiano] possono fare. " Veneto attivisti indipendentisti dicono di essere stati ispirati da movimenti secessionisti in Scozia e la Catalogna.
Crimea? No, Venice! Independence referendum in EU goes almost unnoticed
While the Crimean referendum tops world media headlines, an attempt at secession is going on in Veneto, Italy, with its major city Venice. But as it is being virtually ignored by media, people in Europe are hardly aware of what’s happening next door.
“Do you mean the independence of Crimea?” says a Berlin resident when RT’s Irina Galushko asks him of what he thinks of the current referendum in Veneto, Italy, where people are voting on whether to break away from Rome.
“No, I haven’t heard of it” was the most common answer Galushko received.
The online referendum in the northern Italian province was launched on Sunday, the same day the majority of people in Crimea voted yes to seceding from Ukraine and joining Russia. But unlike the Crimean referendum, the Veneto one has not quite found itself in the media spotlight.
Nevertheless, about 3.8 million eligible Veneto resident voters will now be able, until Friday, to say if they would like to see the region an independent, sovereign and federative Republic of Veneto.
Veneto is one of the biggest and wealthiest provinces in Italy with a population of more than 5 million people. One of the main reasons for the vote is that the region is tired of the backbreaking burden of taxes imposed by Rome.
“We would like to continue the economic ties with Italy,” Lodovico Pizzati, the spokesman for the independence movement, told RT. “But from a fiscal standpoint there’s a huge gap between what we pay in taxes and what we receive as public service. We are talking about a difference of 20 billion euro.”
The latest polls, suggesting that about 65 percent of the population is in favor of becoming independent, have encouraged the independence movement leaders finally to have the region’s fate decided.
“We have to fight for it [independence],” Giovanni Dalla Valle, head of the Veneto independence movement, told RT. “We will do it in a peaceful, diplomatic way. We do strongly believe that when the majority wants to be independent there is nothing they [the Italian government] can do.”
Veneto independence activists say they have been inspired by secession movements in Scotland and Catalonia.
“No, I haven’t heard of it” was the most common answer Galushko received.
