Interior Minister Luciana
Lamorgese said after an EU interior ministers meeting on
migrants in Luxembourg Tuesday that "I can't give numbers" of
the countries backing a recent swift redistribution deal sealed
in Malta.
Speaking after France said up to 10 countries might back the
accord, Lamorgese said "those who have said yes are the three or
four States who had already given their willingness, such as
Luxembourg, and Ireland," she said.
"We have to work to make the accord valid for the other
countries too.
"Let's hope we get agreement between November and December".
Earlier French EU Minister Amélie de Montchalin said 10
countries and "perhaps more" have decided to back the Malta
accord to redistribute migrants as soon as possible.
