"Italy is proud of the results of its migrant-emergency management," the premier said, saying "we saved Europe's honour and showed how to move from flows managed by criminals to safe flows. He said "there is a need for this type of migration, which does not imperil human lives, on the part of a Europe that is getting older and which we want to defend, both culturally and economically".
