The government does not mention changing direction on the issue of migrants. “Our position remains the same: one does not enter Italy illegally; one enters Italy legally. We want to fight human trafficking, illegal entry, and deaths at sea." These were the words of Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni in the weekly video "#gliappuntidiGiorgia" released on social media. "The involvement of Europe - she adds - is fundamental, we have always claimed the need for Europe to focus more on the Mediterranean front, we have always talked about a European mission to block departures and we are working on this aspect. Thanks to the position of the Italian government, for the first time meetings are held and documents are issued in which the central Mediterranean route is a priority. The first steps forward at European and national level will be visible as early as next week; we are working on new rules to stop trafficking, which is an issue on which we do not intend to give up", concludes the Prime Minister.
