ROME Cesar Azpilicueta Chelsea Jersey , Jan. 7 (Xinhua) -- There is fear in Italy about the menace of Islamic terrorism which should be faced with more incisive integration policies, an immigration expert and a political leader told Xinhua in an interview on Wednesday following the deadly shooting attack in Paris.

"Italians are obviously concerned," Matteo Salvini, the leader of right wing regional party Northern League, said. "Today it was a dramatic attack, but there were other episodes in the past months signaling the clear problem of Islamic fundamentalism in Europe," he added.

What the Italian population is asking to political authorities is "safety," stressed Salvini Antonio Rudiger Chelsea Jersey , whose electoral campaigns have been marked by dialogue with citizens. "Italians want resolute condemnation of terrorist attacks as well as strong attention and control on immigration policies and Islamic centers in their country," he said.

"Italy has counted some 160,000 uncontrolled arrivals of migrants in a year, with no guarantee that among those migrants there were not groups of potential criminals," Salvini added referring to the countless flows of sea boat migrants from North African and Middle Eastern troubled counters.

In fact, an uncontrolled immigration has the only effect to feed racist reactions, he highlighted.

"Italians are neither racist nor scaremonger, they have just realized there is a concrete menace in their homes Andreas Christensen Chelsea Jersey ," he explained to Xinhua.

"This menace not only disturbs the peaceful cohabitation of different cultures in Italy," Salvini went on saying noting in Milan, since time immemorial, there was a variety of religious groups, while in recent years some problems have aroused with the Islamic communities. "Furthermore, this sense of instability, insecurity and precariousness also hampers economic growth," he stressed.

There are around 1.2 million Muslims in Italy Alvaro Morata Chelsea Jersey , nearly 2 percent of total population, which makes Islam the second religion after Catholicism, Daniele Brigadoi Cologna, founder of the social research agency Codici and researcher on sociology of immigration at the University of Insubria, said.

"Yet, we are not speaking about huge numbers. Muslims are a slice of the around 5 million migrants from other parts of the world currently estimated to live in Italy," he pointed out.

In his view, two factors have helped prevent terroristic attacks to take place in Italy so far. "Firstly Willy Caballero Jersey , compared to France or the UK, whose foreign population was mostly coming from former colonies, immigration in Italy is much more composite," he told Xinhua.

Secondly, Brigadoi Cologna added, there is not in Italy a strong presence of second or third generation migrants who have turned terrorists in other European countries as a consequence of failed integration dynamics.

"However, our country is in a precarious situation," the expert stressed. He recalled the violent scuffles which broke out at a refugee center in Rome in November after anti-immigration tensions mounted in the Italian capital.

"And there were more anti-Islamic episodes in Italy Willian Jersey , also extending to the racist words and acts of some politicians," he noted.

A general fear fed by real or perceived illegal behavior of some North African migrants combined with intolerance against Muslims aroused from the terroristic attacks in the world have generated a "latent discontent" in Italy, he said.

Such discontent did not result in mass demonstrations just because there was not a triggering event, Brigadoi Cologna underlined, warning of the risks of insufficient integration efforts in his country.

In his view, Italy should build a "structural fund" for integration and foster dialogue between the government authorities and the local Muslim communities, which he said has been mostly fruitless so far.

Encouraging the development of an "influential Muslim intellighenzia" in Italy, Brigadoi Cologna added Victor Moses Jersey , would be another important element of public debate to make people understand what moderate Islam is and stop frequent prejudices against the whole of Islamism.
