According to the details of the French Ministry of the Interior, these migrants will be divided among the five European countries (Italy, France, Germany, Portugal and Luxembourg) having concluded an agreement authorizing the approval of Italy.

"We must now agree on a real European temporary mechanism", wrote on Twitter the French Minister of the Interior, Christophe Castaner.

Italy 's green light came after the inauguration of Giuseppe Conte' s new government, including Matteo Salvini, the outgoing interior minister, who had categorically opposed the deal. berthing on the Italian coasts of boats with migrants on board, in fact not part of it.

"We have already started, ports open without limits"Salvini tweeted after announcing the permission of the migrants landing.

"The new government reopens its ports, Italy is once again the refugee camp in Europe, abusive ministers who hate Italians", wrote Salvini, who was trying to impose early elections in August in his country, but ended up leaving the executive by forming a coalition government excluding his far-right party, the league.

When he was Minister of the Interior, Salvini waged an open war against Senegalese migrants rescued in the Mediterranean, prohibiting them from gaining access to Italian ports or imposing heavy fines.

Salvini was replaced as Minister of the Interior by immigration expert Luciana Laborgese.

Italian Foreign Minister and leader of the 5-star Movement, Luigi Di Maio, told Italian television that "the ship had received a safe haven because the European Union had accepted our request to host the majority of migrants ".

Di Maio had previously led the coalition with the Salvini party and formed a coalition government with the Democratic Party (center-left).

"Ocean Viking" made her second mission to the Mediterranean and sailed for nearly two weeks between Italy and Malta, while waiting for a safe port to land the migrants.

Doctors without Borders (MSF), which also chartered the ship, had 58 men, 6 women, 17 minors and a one – year – old child.

"They told our doctors that they had been burned and beaten with sticks of wood or metal," MSF said in a tweet when the migrants were in Libya.

"Many suffer from psychological trauma," he adds.

During the first expedition, in late August, "Ocean Viking" welcomed 356 migrants, who were able to land in Malta. France has promised to welcome 150.

SOS Mediterráneo operated before the "Aquarius", chartered between 2016 and December 2018, the year in which it was deprived of its flag.
