Italy hosted a one-day Conference in Rome to Address Migration across the Mediterranean. The summit, convened by Italy's Premier Giorgia Meloni, aimed to make Italy a leader in resolving issues impacting Mediterranean nations, including energy and illegal migration. The conference included representatives from 20 nations, EU officials, and international organizations. While some see it as a future roadmap, human rights groups worry it may result in anti-migrant policies. Meloni proposed four main areas for future cooperation: fighting criminal organizations trafficking migrants, managing migration flows better, supporting refugees, and assisting countries of origin. The conference comes amidst ongoing deaths and suffering of migrants attempting to cross the Mediterranean.
