Mogherini ashamed at anti-refugee walls (2)

(ANSA) - On board the Cavour aircraft carrier, April 15 - EU foreign affairs chief Federica Mogherini said Friday "we feel shame and frustration over the walls we see rising in Europe". "We should also feel proud of this Italy and this Europe, which are saving human lives," she added during a visit to Italy's Cavour aircraft carrier, which is the command center for the European Union Naval Force Mediterranean (EUNAVFOR Med) anti-refugee trafficking mission. "Raising walls won't work" because refugees will circumvent or bring them down, she added.
    Mogherini added she will propose extending the EUNAVFOR Med mission to Libyan waters - on Libyan government request - at next Monday's summit of EU foreign and defence ministers.
    "I've already talked it over with (Libyan) Premier Fayez al-Sarraj," Mogherini said.
