(ANSA) - ROME, NOV 13 - Italian President Sergio Mattarella on Wednesday said Italy knows how to take care of itself after Elon Musk the previous day wrote on his platform X that Rome judges who nixed the detention of a second batch of migrants subjected to Italy's controversial policy of taking migrants to be processed in Albania needed to go.
    "Italy is a great democratic country and I must reiterate that it knows how to take care of itself, in the respect of its Constitution", the Italian president said, quoting a previous speech on October 7, 2022.
    Mattarella went on to say that "anyone, particularly if, as announced," they are "about to undertake an important government role in a friendly and allied country, must respect sovereignty and cannot claim the role of imparting provisions". (ANSA).
