EU sources said Friday the
relocation of asylum seekers from Italy to other EU nations
including Estonia, Luxembourg and Sweden will begin "within
days". The idea is to get it done before the next EU summit on
October 15, the sources said. EU interior ministers agreed in
September to resettle 120,000 asylum seekers from Greece and
Italy - where most refugees fleeing across the Mediterranean
usually make first landfall - to other member States.
