Johansson, Italy is managing migratory pressure well

BRUSSELS, 08 MAY - "I think Italy is under enormous migratory pressure and is managing it quite well." This was stated by the European Commissioner for Home Affairs Ylva Johansson in an interview with Euronews, focusing on the clash between Rome and Paris born after the statements of the Minister of the Interior French Gérald Darmanin on migration. "Italy must not be left alone and must be supported by the Commission: this is why I was in Tunisia and I obtained a good agreement with the government of Tunis", explained the commissioner who then also had words of approval on the state of national emergency for the management of irregular migrant landings decided by the government: "It's a national decision. But it helps Italy to speed up the improvement of reception conditions, which is absolutely necessary given the high number of arrivals".
