No space, during the EU Council, on the issue of migrants, after Von der Leyen's openings also to the expectations of Rome

, he continued, "there are always quite different visions but I think the EU must learn from its mistakes, from the past. Today everyone is being asked for important investments for the ecological, digital transition, for supply chains strategic. It cannot be thought that the investments necessary to make our system competitive are not taken into account in governance. It would be tragic for us to go back to the previous parameters, we need governance that is more attentive to growth".
Meloni then added that he is "in contact with Emmanuel Macron for a possible meeting" and that, among the bilaterals already set on the sidelines of the summit, there are those with the Polish premier Mateusz Morawiecki and the Greek Kyriakos Mitsotakis.
Responding to a question about the League's position on Ukraine
, Meloni added: "Frankly, they don't worry me. Beyond the positions expressed to work on a position we are all working towards, i.e. the end of the conflict, I said what I think : in the current context, there is no more effective measure than guaranteeing a balance between the forces on the field".
