A fall in irregular migrant flows to
Italy last year was due to the government's great work, Premier
Giorgia Meloni reportedly told a cabinet meeting Tuesday.
"Today Frontex informs us that the number of irregular entries
of migrants registered in the EU in 2024 has fallen to the
lowest level since 2021", she reportedly said.
"The reduction is mainly due to the drastic drop in entries on
the central Mediterranean route, thanks to the collapse of
departures from Tunisia and Libya. "And this is certainly a
result due to Italy's action, just as the overall reduction in
irregular entries into the EU, also on other routes, depends on
the great work that our government has undertaken in recent
years and which is producing excellent results".
