(ANSA) - ROME, MAR 13 - Helping migrants who stay in their home countries is a more humane approach to the migration emergency, Premier Giorgia Meloni said at the presentation of a book on Pope Francis Monday.
    "In Africa we do not want to take the gold: we want to leave investment and work. Many Africans have told me that they do not want to run away from their lands: more can be done about this, it is the most human, most merciful approach. The Pope says this clearly," Meloni said at the presentation of Father Antonio Spadaro's book, 'The Atlas of Francis. Vatican and international politics'.
    Meloni went on to say that she had been accused of gruesome things regarding migrant disasters, but had a clear conscience.
    "These are peculiar days, I have been accused of gruesome things but my conscience is clear: the more people leave the more we risk something going wrong. It is not the humane way to deal with it, perhaps it is the easiest, to decide that it is the mafiosi who choose those who come to us, that those who arrive find themselves victims of organised crime, of prostitution," she said.
