The traditional date of August 15, when the Interior Ministry takes stock of “migration flow management” and border control, is approaching. For weeks this year, various government representatives, starting with Giorgia Meloni, have been extolling the “successes” achieved in reducing arrivals by sea, on the central Mediterranean route, and the progress made in outsourcing agreements with transit countries, especially Libya and Tunisia.
