Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni says she will be in Cairo tomorrow (Sunday) to sign an agreement between Europe and Egypt for cooperation. The deal to be signed will be similar to the deal signed by Italy with Tunisia in 2023. In 2023, as migrant crossings to West Europe increased, Meloni and European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen made a deal with the country’s President Kais Saied, with much of the focus on stopping migrant crossings.
