Premier Giorgia Meloni said Wednesday
that it was slanderous to say that her government had let people
die in recent migrant-boat shipwrecks in the Mediterranean as
she addressed the Lower House before this week's EU summit.
"To tell the world that we let children die in the Mediterranean
is not just slander against the government, but also against the
Italian State, against the men and women of the forces of law
and order, against our whole system," Meloni said.
