Italy has a moral duty to avert more
migrant disasters, Premier Giorgia Meloni said in a letter to
the EU which earned a place on the March 23/4 EU summit agenda
for the migrant question.
"The shipwreck that occurred a few days ago a few metres from
the Crotone coastline, in which dozens of people died, including
many children, has shocked us all,'', she said.
''Unfortunately, this is not an isolated case. In Italy for many
years we have been mourning tragedies like the one last Sunday
in which those who try to reach our shores in makeshift boats
lose their lives at sea.
''It is our duty, morally even more than politically, to do
everything to prevent misfortunes like these from happening
again';.
