Attilio Fontana, the centre
right's candidate to be the new governor of Lombardy, said
Wednesday that he was sorry about saying the "white race" was at
risk if controls are not put on migrant arrivals.
"I used a wrong expression and I'm sorry," Fontana, the
former mayor of Varese and a member of the anti-migrant,
Euroskeptic League party, told RRT 102.5 radio.
"It was an unfortunately expression.
"I think that this uncontrolled immigration risks causing
serious problems for our country in the future.
"This is what I wanted to say".
