giorgia meloni said _ anti-immigration stance..... giorgia meloni said before the election, i anti-immigration stance... giorgia i meloni said before the election, she said two italians that's the migrants wouldn't come to italy any more. the reality is really different, inside the government there is a part of the government, that take advantage of the situation. giorgia meloni is a little bit weak now because of the situation on migrants. she tries to help lampedusa, but she can't manage. they have memorandum with europe, but as we know, they wait for many. it is constant to many. thank you very much. a team sent by the libyan government based in tripoli has assessed that around a quarter of the buildings in derna were destroyed or damaged by the wall of water that ripped through the city. at least 891 buildings have been destroyed , with a further 211 buildings partially damaged and 398 others submerged in mud. the un says 11,300 people are now known to have died in the city, but thousands are still missing. 0ur middle east corre

this is what meloni did. think she has taken a lot of initiatives that are going to be good initiatives for italy. i think she picked up from mario draghi the playbook and she continued which is fantastic. the only thing that disappointed me was the fact that for somebody coming from the right spectrum of the policy to decide at a certain point to put a tax penalty on the income of the banks, even if it is a large amount, doesn't make a lot of sense. for that, i didn't -- that part of the decision making i did not like. on the other side, i would say for the time being, might not be a plus, but a minus or b plus. >> highest mark i got in school. in terms of the economy, interest rates are elevated and set to be more elevated if the ecb takes on the hawkish stance. ecb will have that take with the high sovereign debt? >> absolutely. as i said, we cannot look at the economy of italy as just one single entity. we have to look at italy in the old part of europe because, by now, this economy is the european econom

reporter: prime minister giorgia meloni one office a year ago on a promise to stop the arrivals. in june, she struck a deal with its government, but that has not stopped the numbers, nearly double the same period last year. >> this is a problem that is not only a problem of the countries that received this influx. it is a problem of the european union and there must be mechanisms of burden sharing. reporter: despite the calls for collective action, solidarity seems to be fraying, with france tightening border security in germany canceling an eu resettling plan. many are now uncertain about their future. mohammed: let's go ahead and bring in our guests. in rome, andrea de petris, scientific director at the center for european policy. badder dabbagh, former syrian refugee who took a dangerous journey on a smuggler's boat 10 years ago that landed in italy. ferdinando nelli feroci, president of the institute of international affairs and former permanent representative of italy to the european union. a warm welcome to you all. thank you for joining us today on inside story. when talki

meloni is not the only politicians who thinks it is not working.n the era where the attitude of europe and the west toward china has changed from being a competitor to more of an aggressive geo strategic rival, things have hardened up. we spoke to a lot of politicians on the channel and we have to treat china as a rival. this is tajani with the mou signed in 2018 and it runs through to 2024 and carry on for another five years unless the italians pull out. it underlines the fact that the chinese sold this as beneficial to a lot of countries. we heard horror stories from the african continent to sri lanka about how bri hasn't worked out for the countries. italy is the latest in a long line. i spoke to tajani about this. let's listen to his response sdpresponse. >> it is not difficult. it is important for us. the message, the italian message, is very clear. we want to work with china. we want to be present in the chinese market. we are ready for chinese inve investment, but as i said, it is important to level the playing field. the italian parliament

meloni can't sound familiar? meloni can't even stop her own boats, let alone owls or rishi's and she's throwing work visas to immigrants like confetti. yes yes. this is the person rishi is touting as blighty's saviour. and worse, you can bet your bottom dollar that any kind of deal with meloni will leave britain massively out of pocket, just like the £500 million the tories have bung the french, which has seen things get worse , not better with friends like meloni, who needs enemies like king canute . rishi is impotent king canute. rishi is impotent to stop the tide of dinghies. unlike comical ali, he tells us we are winning this war. it's just time for the country to admit rishi can't stop the boats. perhaps the even bigger question is, does he even want . question is, does he even want. to so that's what i think. that's me on my high horse about rishi and meloni. i'm not convinced. but anyway , let me convinced. but anyway, let me know what you think. i want to hear from you. you're the most important people ou

that was the italian prime minister giorgia meloni l prime minister giorgia meloni discussing the addedampedusa from a migrant influx. the comedian russell brand has been accused of rape, sexual assaults and emotional abuse over a seven—year period at the height of his fame. the details are contained in a joint report by the sunday times, the times and the channel a programme dispatches. mr brand denies all the allegations. our correspondent lizo mzimba has the latest, and a warning some viewers may find details in his report upsetting. over the course of the evening, some of my accoutrements could make their way onto your body. laughter. in the late 2000s and early 2010s, russell brand was one of britain's best—known faces... announcer: russell brand! ..famous as a comedian and presenter on both sides of the atlantic... i am famous in the united kingdom! ..even appearing in hollywood movies. july 2012 was when my rape happened. it was in los angeles that he met a woman the investigation by the sunday times, the times and channel 4's dispatches are calling nadia. she says they had a bri

and where the secure italian approach announced by ms von der leyen and giorgia meloni today seems toso far, with absolutely no reference to the creation of legal avenues to leave the countries of origin and transit tunisia. and the announcement of a maritime naval european operation that does not have the objective of rescuing people, but only combating trafficking and illegal migration. my trafficking and illegal migration. my question to von der leyen and meloni is, how do you combat illegal migration when people are at sea? that is the very last point of the business which needs to be addressed from its routes. and when people are at sea, the only thing you can do according to international law is to rescue them, take them out of the water as soon as possible. tt water as soon as possible. it strikes me that the situation at sea is only a tiny part of a much wider situation that people are leaving their home countries because of a myriad of issues or circumstances facing them and that for this to be addressed in any meaningful way is notjust an issue that can be done in days or we

in italy to attend the state funeral former italian president giorgio napolitani, napolitano, so meloninge of views with macron on the need to find a european solution to the migration issue. thank you, max, mr. john stepling, welcome to the program, john. is there a more polarizing issue that's playing the european union right now and you can't even say the ukraine war because 90% of the countries or 70 or 80% are on the west side and there's a couple that defer because of uh certain... of issues like energy and the fact they feel like there is no chance that ukraine is going to prevail in this thing, it's really hurting russia, i mean uh, europeuh quite badly, but when it comes, i mean to a divide, there's nothing that's fracturing the european union worse than this. yeah, i don't think you can find a topic that is more politicized than immigration, certainly not in europe, and it has uh, it has given rise to number of far right parties that. either outright rule a european country with italy being one, or they are members of a coalition, this this is and and ones that presumably will

evening daniel, as you mentioned earlier today's meeting between italian prime minister, georgia meloni came a time when relations between roma and is are under a bit of strain, it must be said, however, that relations between the two countries have historically been bitters with and rifts over the migrant issue have been frequent in august 2019 when italy intercepted 200 migrants in the mediterranean and kept them aboard for days asking for european countries to accept the redistribution, france refused to take any migrants in, in november last year it was france's turn, to blame it on italy over migration uh after a charity operated ship uh carrying hundreds of asylum seekers many of them sick docked in the french port of toulone after almost three weeks being stranded at sea during italy's current sorry with the current government on and get failing to give it safe port so the rifts over the migrant issue between the two countries have been there for for a long time. now italy's prime minister maloni is under heavy pressure to deliver on an electoral campaign promise to end migration

italy's giorgia meloni says europe's future is at stake.he migration policy centre, which conducts research on the governance of international migration, asylum and mobility. he explained the signifgance of todays visit? for the italian prime minister, giorgia meloni, being able to engage with the european union in what is a key policy challenge for the italian government is fundamental. and i think what we've seen today is a commitment from ursula von der leyen really to align the efforts of the european union with those of the italian government and to focus in particular on border control and border security. we were just hearing, andrew, you were just saying big promises, we were just hearing in mark lowen�*s report that promises to lampedusa, they come and they go, does this feel like this visit could bring change to the island? that said, that is the big question because actually, we are talking about the pressures today but really you can go back eight years until 2015 and the arrival of large numbers numbers of syrians, again, in it

italian prime minister meloni is expected to present her budget, pare back. the controversial windfall tax on bank that was amended. we love to talk about ins and outs of italian public bank. ultimately it's looking at raising a couple of billion, 2 billion euros. we should be more concerned about the state of italy's public finances because they're expected to revise their deficit upward this year and next year. >> that's why today's so important when you're looking at italian finances. within this context it's worth keeping an eye on that spread between the italian bond and the german bund. if these numbers aren't positive for the markets, and of course, we're expecting that the government will increase their headline deficit for 2024, we're expecting it to sit at about 4%, that's an improvement from this year but higher than what the government had originally projected earlier in 2023, going into next year. important to get those concrete numbers later on today. of course it comes at a challenging time because we just had the sag ya of the banking tax, and

, well, yes , this is meloni, well, meloni, as they call him there, well, the same, yes, she really loves’s a fool , well, she’s a complete fool, i looked closer, i’m a fool, well, well, well, well, you understand, he contradicts himself when he’s with one side... speaks negatively about zakharov and the same one says: no one knew me at all, if she had not paid attention to me, maybe no one would have known me at all in life, but i think we were only happy if we didn’t have to discuss... this, and this - this is not just a coincidence, so to speak , a coincidence, this is a whole ideology that they are trying to impose on us all, now regarding zelsky, what you said vladimiruch, he wants to start a third world war, it’s not that he wants to unleash the third world war, he wants to save himself, because, because, because poroshenko did such a trick at one time, he started a war, installed zelensky. this war, now no one remembers him, there is zelsky, yes, and zelsky wants to do the same thing, that is, expand this conflict and say, no, well, in principle, i was right, here is russia same ag

meloni's government called the arrivals an invasion and an act of war.ut it seems to have brought attention and more resources. meanwhile, the eu is preparing to transfer one billion euros to nearby autocratic tunisia, to bolster its economy and stop boats leaving. cracks, however, have been exposed in european cooperation. the french government has now said it will refuse to take arrivals from lampedusa. back in town, locals are celebrating the annual festival for the island's patron saint, madonna di porto salvo, mary, protector of seafarers. here we find the island's mayor, freshly returned from calling for aid at the united nations in new york. translation: the islanders have been living with this _ phenomenon for 30 years, now. but to outsiders there is a perception that there is complete chaos here, islands in collapse, islands under attack. this is not the case. i'm not the one who can decide a solution because i'm just the mayor of a small island. but we have to choose whether to treat people the same or not. whether they are ukrainians fleeing w

on sunday, meloni and the foundation inspected the migrant accommodation center, according to the red were 1,500 people left there, the rest were urgently taken to sicily especially before the visit the distinguished guests prime minister melody and i have come to propose a joint response by italian and european authorities to this crisis. i want to make it clear. we, as part of the international community , have fulfilled and will continue to fulfill our obligations to receive migrants, but it is we, the carriers of illegal immigrants, who will decide who and under what conditions enters the european union , the head of the european commission proposed to jointly fight smugglers, destroying their boats before they they will have time to put you there people of the tunisian coast guard will receive the departure required for this equipment of the european union countries. he called for solidarity and to take in some of the migrants from italy. rome demands that brussels finally move away from calls to action of aggression , this is a comprehensive crisis, if anyone in europe thinks th

the italian prime minister, giorgia meloni, said the influx to the island and to italy had to be stoppede migrants across the eu. in just three days, more than 8,000 migrants have arrived on the shores of lampedusa. that's more than the number of people living on the italian island. it's led to protests and pressure on the government. today, two more arrivals that local people were happy to welcome — italian prime minister giorgia meloni and president of the european commission ursula von der leyen. this massive flow of immigrants is something which requires the involvement and the responsibility by everybody to be tackled, because it is going to affect certainly the border, the frontier countries, but it will soon also involve all of the other countries. the italian red cross has said it is currently dealing with about 2,500 people at this reception centre, designed for 400 arrivals. today, ursula von der leyen announced she had a ten—point plan to tackle the issue. this includes stepping up efforts against smugglers and providing more legal pathways for migration. we will increase our

a lot to digest on top of the comments from giorgia meloni and the svb updates from stockholm as well. let's bring in our markets reporter, she is all over those stories. what is top of your agenda? valerie: i'm interested to see how italian markets trade this maloney tax update, the escape clause to the windfall tax. maybe the market will read it as a way for her government to get banks to hold more italian debt. rather than paying the one-off windfall tax, the banks can use the money to bolster reserves instead. perhaps the market will read through this and this is a way for her government to incentivize banks, hold more italian debt on their balance sheet, which would help bring borrowing costs for the italian government down and perhaps allow torture maloney in the -- georgia maloni to deal with the slowing growth, and this could be a backdoor way to continue spending. kriti: that's just the italian story. talk to us about the german story as an extension of what we are seeing in sweden for example. over the week and i think the most read story on the terminal was the saga with sv

the italian prime minister giorgia meloni said the influx to the island and to italy had to be stoppedwasn't enough to just redistribute migrants across the eu. one of europe's migration choke points is gasping. more than 8,000 arriving in lampedusa injust three days this week, more than the whole population of the italian island. the migrant centre built to hold 400 was at ten times its capacity. congested, chaotic, some trying any futile way to get free. today, two new arrivals rather more planned. the italian prime minister, giorgio meloni, and the eu president, ursula von der leyen to see for themselves the turmoil at europe's door. italy's leader is under pressure, elected with promises to curb migration. numbers are now double the same period last year. translation: what is at stake here is the future, future that l europe wants to set for itself. and it is very important to be able to tackle the huge, massive challenge challenges which lie ahead for us, especially in terms of illegal immigration. the eu president offered more help from the bloc�*s border force to crack the smugg

evening, daniel, as you mentioned earlier today's meeting between italian prime minister giorgia meloniid, however that relations between the two countries have historically been bries over the migrant issue have been frequent in august 20. 19 when italy intercepted 200 migrants in the mediterranean and kept them aboard for days asking uh for european countries to accept the redistribution, france refused to take any migrants in. in november last year it was france's turn to blaming on italy over migration, after a charity operated ship, carrying hundreds of asylum seekers, many of sick, docked in the french port of toulone after almost three weeks uh, being stranded at sea during italy's current sorry with the current government on and get failing to give it safe port. so the rifs over the migrant issue between the two countries have been there for for a long time. now italy's prime minister maloni is under heavy pressure to deliver on an electoral campaign promise to end migration. she took office about year ago, pledging to crack down on illegal migration to 12 months later, not only

you spoke about tunisia and the deal that prime minister meloni is trying to put together with the tunisnment. in years gone by they used to pay colonel gadhafi to patrol the beaches and break up the gangs. do they have a willing partner in tunis? according to the deputy prime minister, he says it is coordinator any cup that he says it is quite donated and he calls it a war -- he calls it coordinated and he calls it a war. luca: he has been very skilled on migration to extract concessions in the memorandum that was signed in july, in terms of money that by the west hasn't been dispersed yet -- christian: do you think he is letting them go through because the money has not arrived? luca: we don't have evidence of this kind of organized attempt by tunisia. but for sure, a government like the one -- is well aware of the kind of leverage he has due to fears of migration in europe. but i don't have the elements right now to say that there is an organized attempt to force hands. for sure since the memorandum has been signed, there has been an increasing number of arrivals from tunisia. but i d

after people blocked her road george meloni assured citizens that the authorities were doing everythingve the migration crisis. we came here specifically. for this, i usually keep the word lampedusa, which is closest to the coast, not beyond the territory of italy, so streams of migrants and north africa rushed to this island; in a week, about 11,000 people landed; for comparison, local residents are almost half as many. the migrants behaved like businessmen ; they blocked the roads, demanding to be transferred immediately and of course for free ; immigrants from different countries were in conflict over places in line to board the court sent by the authorities. residents of lampedosa also organized protests on saturday evening , mass riots almost broke out, and there was a rumor that a tent city for migrants would appear at the former military base. and that the ferry supposedly delivered equipment for him , the authorities tried to convince people into the tents, supposedly needed for the military, who ensure the safety of meloni and ursula fondeley, the equipment did not help. i had

the italian prime minister giorgia meloni said the influx to the island and to italy had to be stoppedto just redistribute migrants across the eu. the bbc�*s mark lowen reports. one of europe's migration choke points is gasping. more than 8,000 arriving in lampedusa injust three days this week. the migrant centre, built to hold 400, was at ten times its capacity. congested, chaotic, some trying any futile way to get free. today, two new arrivals, rather more planned — the italian prime minister giorgia meloni and the eu president ursula von der leyen, to see for themselves the turmoil at europe's door. italy's leader is under pressure. elected with promises to curb migration, numbers are now double the same period last year. translation: what is at stake here is the future, the future i that europe wants to set for itself, and it is very important to be able to tackle the huge, massive challenges which lie ahead for us, especially in terms of illegal immigration. the eu president offered more help from the bloc�*s border force to crack the smugglers, and more efforts to distribute migr

let's hear what giorgia meloni had to say.owever, if somebody here in europe were to think that these global crisis that we are tackling and facing could be just solved within the italian borders, then it would be a very big, huge mistake on their side, because this massive flow of immigrants is something which requires the involvement and the responsibility by everybody to be tackled, because it's going to affect certainly the border, the frontier countries, but it will soon also involve all of the other countries. so we are all involved in this. we are all involved in trying to tackle and deal with this situation. and therefore the presence of president von der leyen is a sign of awareness in this respect. the head of the european commission, ursula von der leyen said that a joint reponse with italy will be put in place. prime minister maloney and i are here today to offer a coordinated response by the italian and european authorities. i would response by the italian and european authorities. iwould be response by the italia

you can see the giorgia meloni. you can see the logic here, can't you? does this idea have any merit? no because the people traffickers are giving an expresso to the numbers of people that are being able to cross the borders into europe. >> i mean , let's look at the >> i mean, let's look at the numbers, martin, as we always do. let's start with the facts . do. let's start with the facts. and we start with the facts from the union, european the european union, the european union says that there were 325,000 people coming into italy on the what they call the eastern mediterranean migration route this year alone, that we also have the highest number of applicants, 1 million applicants for asylum in the eu this year. and out of that, 822,000 were first time applicants. but interestingly enough, in the past it's just mainly been germany, italy, the uk and france taking about 70% of them. but i'm really fascinated at some new numbers . the first one some new numbers. the first one is the massive rise 422% increase in applicants in ireland, 368% increase in cr
