Rome, 3 Aug. (LaPresse) – “In Italy, from January this year to date, there has been a sharp fall in the number of irregular migrant arrivals, achieved precisely thanks to the policies of the Meloni government. This represents a 55 per cent drop compared with last year and around 82 per cent compared with 2023 – the first year of our government’s term – when we had to deal with a situation inherited from previous governments that was completely out of control. As for the alleged ‘invasion’ of Lampedusa, there are currently 98 migrants on the island and there has been no emergency situation there for some time.” This information comes from sources at the Ministry of the Interior.
