'Moral imperative' to rescue migrants - Mogherini

(ANSA) - Rome, June 30 - There is a "moral imperative" to rescue migrants at sea and Italy and the EU must decide how best "to do it together," Foreign Minister Fedreica Mogherini said Monday after the latest disaster claimed 30 lives. Italy had thus far done the job "almost alone", she said, stressing that there was "no alternative" to rescuing migrants. "The point is how to do all together rationally," the diplomatic chief said.
