00:00The most important daily issue, well, one of them in Italy, is immigration.
00:05Pope Francis played an important moral role in this regard.
00:10Do you think we will witness a change in this going forward?
00:14It is true. We all remember the powerful image of the Pope
00:19throwing flowers onto the Mediterranean Sea in the island of Pantelleria,
00:26in the island of Lampedusa, just to show the deep sorrow and the deep compassion
00:33for all those dying, trying to cross the Mediterranean Sea
00:38and dying in the fault of traffickers, illegal traffickers of human beings.
00:45That symbolic relevance, that powerful image, has certainly also had a political significance
00:53and really touched the imagination of everybody.
00:57But then migration, illegal migration especially, stays a very practical problem.
01:04And each politician, each government has to face it, and face it really with no excuses.
01:12Now, I think that the migration issue will stay, will remain,
01:16as one of the most important, relevant points in the agenda of the European policies.
01:22All right.
01:23All right.
01:30Let's take the swan tourist situation.
01:45Let's take the swan to the desert.
01:47That we're scusiastic Janae.
