the european union continues to work with the quartet for libya today and t. that there is a unitarian approach the only thing that we are asking europe is to. look at should function we are continue to push because in europe you're not particularly latterly in general the only thing that counts is hard negotiation right now there are countries still trying to cope with a record number of migrants has been at the forefront of it so often of the last few years it's accepted over eighty thousand people since january it's already threatened to shut down ports and it's imposed stricter rules on the n.g.o.s rescuing migrants i did see locals in one of the most affected areas as well as many politicians believe that the responsibility should be shared. your i believe that welcoming people is the right things to you but the european union must pay more attention to this phenomenon and support italy in this enormous effort of social integration for these people is a must but the e.u.
