Premier Giorgia Meloni on Saturday
said security was a priority for Europe, arriving at the
North-South Summit in Saariselka, Finland.
"We need more security and I think that putting together nations
from the North and South, which have historically often been on
very different fronts on European issues, to discuss what today
represents a priority for Europe is a very smart choice", said
the prime minister, thanking her Finnish counterpart Petteri
Orpo.
"From the theme of migrants, to the theme of defence, to the
theme of a scenario in which hybrid wars and threats multiply we
must put together our efforts.
"This is our priority", she concluded.
Security, defence and immigration are the themes at the centre
of the summit, which is also attended by Swedish Premier Ulf
Kristersson, Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis and EU
foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas.
European security was at the centre of talks on Saturday morning
while immigration was on the agenda in the afternoon.
