(ANSA) - UDINE - "The deployment of 70 Austrian soldiers at the Brenner border could be useful if they help to limit the flow of illegal migrants from Austria to Italy", said the Friuli Venezia Giulia president Debora Serracchiani. According to Serracchiani, Vienna's decision "is contradictory, since we are just registering arrivals of migrants returning from the northern countries. In particular in Friuli Venezia Giulia".

A 25-year-old Afghan citizen, resident in Austria, was arrested last night for facilitating illegal immigration near the Tarvisio border crossing (Udine). The man was surprised by a Carabinieri patrol just after bringing four illegal immigrants from Austria to Italy.
