Protest this morning in Teulada, where fishermen from the Sant'Anna Arresi navy are guarding the entrance to the Capo Teulada military base in Sa Portedda. After the symbolic occupation of the council chamber of the town of Arresi, last night they held a meeting with the municipal administration, which for the occasion canceled the municipal council scheduled for yesterday.
They demand payment of the compensation provided for the fishing stoppage during military exercises. Compensation which in many municipalities of Sardinia reached 100%, while for the fishermen of Sant'Anna Arresi only a portion equal to 36% of the expected compensation was received. Currently it is not clear the real reasons that led to assigning only a part of the compensation, a possible error on the part of the municipal administration was hypothesized, which denies and confirms that it has carried out the procedures correctly.
The fishermen are waiting for an official note from the ministry. In the meantime, a representation, with the mayor Maria Teresa Diana, and the deputy police commissioner, are meeting the base commander.
