ROME, 23 SEPTEMBER - "Today in Malta the great novelty of the automatic migrant redistribution mechanism will be discussed for the first time, together with France and Germany and the EU Commission, in order to avoid a negotiation with each landing", as it is happened so far. "The main problem remains to change the Dublin regulation, but in Malta there will be an important first step: after 15 months of quarrel we will sit down at a table with the European partners". This was stated by the Minister of European Affairs Enzo Amendola at 'Start', on SkyTg24, about the summit of the interior ministers of Italy, France, Malta and Germany scheduled today.
For Amendola, "solidarity" between European countries to share the burdens of landings with Italy and Malta "is the first step", but then new mechanisms will also be needed to tackle a structural phenomenon, such as the humanitarian corridors for asylum seekers proposed by the President of the Commission von der Leyen ", he added.
