Premier Giorgia Meloni met with her
Polish counterpart Mateusz Jakub Morawiecki ahead of the
informal European Council meeting organised by the Spanish
presidency in Granada on Friday.
"The two heads of government discussed at length the topics on
the agenda, starting with European support for Ukraine, security
and defence issues, the resilience and competitiveness of
Europe's industrial base, the prospects for the Union's
enlargement process, and migration issues," said a statement
issued by the premier's office at Palazzo Chigi.
In a Facebook Live after the meeting Morawiecki said the two
leaders had agreed "that it is especially important to defend
the external borders (of the EU), because otherwise there will
always be a situation where tens of millions of people, if not
hundreds of millions of people, will want to come here from many
parts of the world".
"Europe will not be able to withstand this, Europe will break
up," he added.
