...the
social & economic juggernaut that is Italy... shouldn't be calling the shots for their European, uh...
"partners"...
-- (Reuters) -- France temporarily shut its border to trains from Italy carrying African migrants and protesters on Sunday, a move Rome formally protested, accusing Paris of violating European principles.
That'd be, what, Silvio... the principle that a country should
have control over it's own borders?
Italy has began issuing migrants with temporary permits allowing them to leave Italy to travel to other destinations in Europe, a policy which has been criticised by several of its partners, including France and Germany.
