Italy PM slams ’aggressive’ France response in migrant row • FRANCE 24 English

Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni on Friday condemned what she called the “aggressive reaction“ of the French government to taking in a migrant rescue vessel rejected by Rome. She told a press conference it was “incomprehensible and unjustified“, after Paris said it would accept the Ocean Viking and the 234 migrants onboard, but suspend a previous plan to take in 3,500 refugees currently in Italy.
