Time.news – On the issue of immigration “we only asked for compliance with the rules, we did it officially, with great grace but also with great firmness”. So from Berlin in an interview with Rai, the Foreign Minister, Antonio Tajani interviewed by Rai.
“We have to collaborate a lot with a friendly country and a great interlocutor like Germany, then when we need to give some message, especially on the issue of immigration, we do it with determination, but to ensure compliance with the rules. NGOs respect European rules when they rescue someone at sea and then ask to dock in the nearest ports “.

In the meeting with the German Foreign Minister “I raised the issue of NGO ships: it is not a question that concerns Germany, for us it is a question that concerns the law, which concerns European standards. they collect people at sea rightly, when they ask to dock in an Italian port they have to tell us who is on board, how many are, where they come from, there needs to be a complete report on the people who are there, this concerns safety “. Foreign Minister Antonio Tajani said this on the sidelines of the G7 in Munster.
“It being understood that whatever the situation, if someone’s life is to be saved, Italy is ready to save lives. But we want to know who arrives in our country, where they were collected from. one, they must tell us who they are, otherwise it is difficult to accept an approach to our territorial waters “, he added.
