Italy’s Supreme Court rules out Nazi salutes

43views

Italy’s Supreme Court has effectively legalized the Nazi salute, allowing it to be performed at commemorative and public events.

This became known after a court decision in cases involving those convicted of making Nazi salutes.

The Italian Supreme Court found no evidence of a crime in the greeting called the “Roman salute,” il Fatto Quotidiano.

The greeting looks like a raised right hand.

According to the court, there is nothing reprehensible in this if it does not pursue the goal of “reviving fascism.”

At the same time, punishment is provided for such a greeting as part of measures aimed at the rehabilitation of fascism.

For such actions, Italian law provides for criminal penalties and imprisonment for up to three years.

But it follows from the court decision that persons can be released from liability if they greet each other in a similar way in

privately or at memorial events.

Let us remind you that in Russia and Belarus, actions aimed at the rehabilitation of Nazism are a crime.

The legislation of both countries provides for criminal liability for such actions.

Earlier it became known what the head of the German Defense Ministry said about Ukraine.
