Deputy Premier and Interior Minister
Matteo Salvini reiterated on Monday that he does not intend to
let a group of migrants rescued by a ship run by the Sea-Watch
NGO land in Italy.
He was commenting after the European Commission called on the
EU member states involved in the case to find a solution for the
43 migrants who have been at sea for almost two weeks because a
port of safety has not been allocated.
"Does the European Union want to solve the Sea-Watch problem?
That's easy," said League leader Salvini.
"It's a Dutch ship, the NGO is German - half of the
immigrants should go to Amsterdam, the other half to Berlin.
"Then seize the pirate ship".
