From the BBC:

Carola Rackete was arrested at the Italian port of Lampedusa after a
two-week stand-off with police at sea.

Her vessel, Sea-Watch 3, was banned from docking, but it eventually
entered the port on Friday night.

On Saturday, Mr Salvini called Ms Rackete a "rich, white, German
woman" who had committed "an act of war".

Couldn't Carola Rackete of Sea Watch 3 have chosen another harbor?

How political is her decision of steering to Italy? Italy has, as for now, a (let's call it politely) far-right with an attitude government, so, if you are left-wing and want to annoy someone, then, Italy is your place to bring refugees.

It's clear that if you want to (or pretend that you want to) save people, you won't bring them back to Libya. However, in the 2 weeks at high sea, couldn't she have contacted and landed on France, Greece, Turkey, Spain?
