Italy PM slams 'aggressive' France response in migrant row

Description

Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni on Friday condemned what she called the "aggressive reaction" of the French government to taking in a migrant rescue vessel rejected by Rome. She told a press conference it was "incomprehensible and unjustified", after Paris said it would accept the Ocean Viking and the 234 migrants onboard, but suspend a previous plan to take in 3,500 refugees currently in Italy. FRANCE 24's Seema Gupta reports from Rome, Italy.
