It is very serious that European
Commission President Ursula von der Leyen should be flying to
Egypt with Premier Giorgia Meloni Sunday to continue allegedly
failed migrant policies that trample on human rights,
centre-left Democratic Party (P) leader Elly Schlein said
Saturday.
"I find it very serious that tomorrow the President of the
European Commission Ursula von der Leyen will fly to Egypt
together with Giorgia Meloni to promise resources to the Al-Sisi
regime in exchange for control and a stop to departures", she
said.
"This approach in recent years has only trampled on fundamental
rights and has not produced a solution of European solidarity
for which we will continue to fight," Schlein concluded.
