Ex-premier and ruling centre-left
Democratic Party (PD) leader Matteo Renzi backs the new hard
line on migrants and the EU taken by Premier Paolo Gentiloni and
Interior Minister Marco Minniti, PD sources said Wednesday. The
sources welcomed the formal diplomatic step on migrants taken by
the government with the European Commission, noting that Renzi
on Tuesday called the situation "unsustainable". They also
pointed out that the PD leader's positions on Italy getting more
help in coping with the migrant emergency were "well-known".
