Premier Paolo Gentiloni on
Thursday said Italy's success in cutting migrant arrivals was
clear but policy must be consolidated and "Europeanised as much
as possible". Speaking at a joint press conference with
Slovenian Premier Miro Cerar, Gentiloni said "the results on
immigration can be seen, namely the reduction of landings and
migratory flows, which is a result of our policy and the support
of the EU". There was an 82% drop in migrant arrivals in Italy
in August thanks to a deal with Libya and a code of conduct for
migrant-rescuing NGOs.
