The rights of children of same-sex couples and their recourse to surrogacy is a major political issue these days in Italy.
Last Saturday, the Rainbow Families, the center-left Democratic Party, Five Star and Italian Left activists took part in a demonstration in Milan demanding that the children of same-sex couples.
In her statements on a program of the Italian public television Rai, the Minister of Equality and Family, Eugenia Rocella, said yesterday that “surrogate motherhood creates a market for children” and that “there are international exhibitions – they even tried to organize one in Milan – but in Italy n surrogate motherhood is prohibited”. “With adoption we are correcting one damage, while with surrogacy we are planning another damage,” added Rochela.
At the same time, in an interview today on the private channel La 7, Federico Mollicone, president of the Committee on Cultural Affairs of the Parliament of Rome and an executive of the Brothers of Italy, underlined that “surrogacy is a crime, which is more serious than pedophilia”.
The Italian center-left, through the MP Irene Manzi, responded that “Moliccone is in a phase of delirium” and that “what matters is not the particular delirium, but not to create first and second class families and that children’s rights are always respected and protected”.
The Rainbow families of Italy, finally, underlined that “they want a law to be approved, as has happened in almost all European countries, which provides for the legal existence of their children and allows parents, to recognize their role”.
