November’s Valletta Summit on migration will provide a valuable opportunity to enhance collaboration with African countries and seek solutions, Parliamentary Secretary Ian Borg said at a meeting in Brussels yesterday.
He emphasised the need to engage with countries of origin and transit on the issue.
At an EU ministerial meeting of the General Affairs Council (GAC), Dr Borg called for concrete outcomes with regard to the challenge being faced by the EU as a result of the dramatic spike in refugee and migrants arrivals.
