Europe: Protests in Italy over migration, Ukraine grain dilemma

Nine To Noon - Podcast készítő RNZ

Europe correspondent Seamus Kearney talks about the protests that faced European Commission president Ursula Von der Leyen during her visit to the Italian island of Lampedusa over the surge in migrants. Her message: a "European response" is needed to help Italy cope with the influx. Hungary, Poland and Slovakia have decided to go it alone when it comes to dealing with the dilemma of Ukraine grain exports. And Italian media have published a letter found in the Vatican archives that appears to show that wartime Pope Pius XII knew the details of Nazi death camps as early as 1942.
