(DEUTSCHE WELLE) Germany is prepared to take in 25% of migrants who arrive in Italy by boat, Interior Minister Horst Seehofer told Germany newspaper Süddeutsche Zeitung on Friday.
In an apparent goodwill gesture ahead of European Union talks on immigration later this month, Seehofer said: “If all that has been agreed stands, we would be able to take in 25% of people rescued at sea and who end up in Italy.”
“This will not overwhelm our migration policy.”
