Italian here to give some background:

Everything regarding this nonsense is Piantedosi (our intern affairs minister) trying to pulling a dick size contest. He is the absolute worse and it's a disgrace that such a piece of garbage is in charge of such a delicate task, but bashing Italy for this is pretty easy when no further research is done on why the situation is like this:

- Right wing politicans heavily used the immigration problem in theyr campaign to criticize both the left wing and the European Union, contributing to the victory in the last elections

- Italy is currently having an immigration crysis with both the augmented flux of people due to the war coming both from the sea and the balkan route with little to no collaboration coming from both the EU and neighbour Nations

- The recent disaster from Cruto is being wheaponized with theese bullshit laws coming from Italy government, where a Turkey ship came to Italy instead of Greece due to the more aggressive coast guards (go check it out, it's onw of the worst recent events)

Even the recent bash with France where they accepted 240 of our immigrants, but sent back to theyr origin Nations a lot of them contributed in making the Italy situation even harsher

The whole EU is not giving the right justice to this problem. Remember to always check the whole situation before pointing your finger

That would require way too much effort and admitting that the EU is refusing to face the problem as a community instead of leaving one or two countries neck deep in shit.

Everyone wants to save them but no one wants to take them in

It's a lot easier to just blame Italy and go "urr durr fascists urr durr".

I agree. It's time for EU to work for a long term solution as this migrants-boat crisis seems to not have an no-ending cycle every year. And it's a matter of time before Italy, Greece explose. EU already pay hundred millions to billion € to Turkey, Morocco, Libya, .... it seems not enough to keep the migrants...hundred millions to protect its border, an increase in Frontex.... and still fail to find solution on the boat from mediteranean sea.

So the only solution is having better talk/negociation with safe africans countries to relocate africans refugees/migrants within africans continent. EU will have to take a thougher measures like Australia.

Makes laws that any migrants that come through the sea will be deported into a detention center in africa and they won't get any asylum in Europe. And then, support financially (with tech transfer or knowledge) the africans countries that are taking migrants/refugees to increase their growth and industrialization.

True, you basically point out the problem. And that's how I see it as well.

People want to rescue the migrants from drawning. It's a good thing. But no country want to take them in. Because it's a huge responsability and a burden to the tax payer....without forgetting the culture clash that can happen at any time.
