Giorgia Meloni is "incapable of solving Italy's migratory problems".

The case broke out on the words of the French Interior Minister, Gérald Darmanin, who directly attacked the Italian premier (who "heads a far-right government chosen by Mrs Le Pen's friends") and her management of "a very serious migration crisis » in an interview with RMC.

Unacceptable words, defined Foreign Minister Antonio Tajani. Who has decided to stand up to his French counterpart , Catherine Colonna, whom he was supposed to meet today at the Quai d'Orsay: «The offenses to the government and to Italy pronounced by Minister Darmanin are unacceptable. This is not the spirit in which common European challenges should be faced,” he tweeted. To then explain to Tg4 that it was « a stab in the back because the climate was absolutely positive and I had been invited by my colleague Colonna to study what we could do together. I could not accept that Italy was insulted, it was said plague and horns of our country for no reason, if not those of internal politics, but a Minister of the Interior of a large country should reflect before speaking. I expected a statement of apologies to the Italian government».

France is attempting the path of reconciliation: "The French government hopes to work with Italy to face the common challenge represented by the rapid growth of migratory flows", says the Quai d'Orsay.

“This strange and incomprehensible attitude of some representatives of European governments to try to interfere in Italian public life today has exceeded the guard level – commented Defense Minister Guido Crosetto in a note -. French Interior Minister Gerald Darmanin should present a formal apology to our government and to President Meloni. The truth is, we need everything right now except more division. It doesn't take a genius to understand that undermining relations between founding countries of the EU can only weaken each of us. The enormous migratory flows we are witnessing today are unfortunately the result of too many mistakes made by many nations in Africa for decades. It would be better to reflect on these wrong choices and avoid making new ones rather than seek controversy at all costs, perhaps for internal political ends".
