January 28, 2020 Facebook has removed the video posted on January 21 by Matteo Salvini where he was seen intercoming, on the recommendation of some families in the area, to a family of Tunisian origin in the Pilastro district of Bologna. The League leader, accompanied by cameras and some residents, had asked if the people residing in the apartment were selling drugs. Later it turned out that the boy, despite himself the protagonist of the video in question, was a minor. For Facebook, the video "does not meet the community's standards of hate speech" as reported by several screenshots published by some users who had reported it to the social platform created by Mark Zuckerberg. The removal came a week after the publication made by the Salvini social team. The video also caused some diplomatic problems with Tunis given that the deputy president of Parliament, Osama Sghaier, in an interview with Radio Capital, had called him "a racist and shameful attitude that undermines relations between Italy and Tunisia".
