(ANSA) - Rome, April 27 - Italy will seek to safeguard
Italians in a post-Brexit Britain just as Britons are
safeguarded in Italy, Premier Paolo Gentiloni said Thursday. "We
are interested in the fact that among the priorities of the
negotiation is the destiny of citizens of various European
countries residing in the United Kingdom," 15% of whom are
Italians, Gentiloni told the House. "We have the duty and right
to demand for our compatriots certain safeguards and
administrative rights, immediately applicable,
non-discriminatory and based on the principle of reciprocity"
with Britons resident in Italy, the premier said. Gentiloni
added that the government would do all it could to try and make
sure Milan becomes the new site for the European Medicines
Agency (EMA) when that moves from London.
