Interior Minister Matteo Piantedosi
met his Libyan counterpart Imad Trabelsi in Rome on Thursday to
take stock of the migration situation, the interior ministry
said.
The talks focused on exchanging ideas about shared strategies to
combat illegal migration, it said.
The two ministers "agreed that an effective solution to block
the irregular flow of migrants is the implementation of assisted
voluntary repatriations from Libya to the countries of origin,
to be carried out in collaboration with the main international
partners, including the IOM and UNHCR," the ministry said.
