Italy's conservative-led government has reported a remarkable 64% decrease in illegal immigration numbers over the past year. Italian Foreign Minister Antonio Tajani expressed satisfaction with this achievement, emphasizing that the government's focus is on combating illegal immigration rather than legal migration.
Tajani highlighted the role of human traffickers in fueling various criminal activities, including trafficking of humans, weapons, and drugs. To address this issue, Italy has engaged in financial agreements with countries like Tunisia and Libya, which has drawn both criticism and praise.
