President of the Republic Kais Saied had a meeting on Sunday with Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, President of the European Commission Ursula Van Der Leyen and Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte. The meeting was attended by government members and European Union representatives. This is the Italian Prime Minister's second visit to Tunis in less than a week. Georgia Meloni was in Tunis on June 6, where she was received by President Kais Saied and Prime Minister Najla Bouden. Italy is endeavouring to urge the European Union and donors to support Tunisia in view of the worsening crisis of irregular migration to the northern shores of the Mediterranean.
