period of the past in the past 2 years. so definitely gets situation that needs to be addressed with further further measures. the issue is that migration is not a new topic and to the, the structural phenomenon that keeps being treated as an emergency. and that with the emergency, a decrease and these dangers in terms of making sure that the human rights of the people starting with the right to speak asylum, you guaranteed at old time, we are worried that these will expedite the expulsion and recreation without the possibility for people to seek asylum and have their aside implication being assessed. and this is of course there was out of the lack of cooperation from the european union. even though founding treaty, there is clearly, i'm trying to the principle are fully typically in the topic, asylum, and migration. this is not happening and the situation that is that we have now in

italy and these will be of the cost over the human rights of the people. the danger in the mediterranean migration route tell us more about the humanitarian situation, especially on the boats right now. so when we a sighted people, se, i mean, usually day and they way but us and they had the, i mean it's, it's really and it's really difficult for us to be there, monitoring them from the sky and knowing that said they cannot be rescued immediately. reparations, when they take place, they take a huge amount of time and hours, especially on these big fishing boats. it's really difficult to support people. we were informed about the presence of medical emergencies and a pregnant women, several small children, and did their weather conditions, etc. have been a deteriorating so i mean, this is a very and i cannot imagine myself surviving in these condition quite frankly. and
