STORY: Meloni, Michel discuss migration ahead of European Council meeting DATELINE: Jan. 31, 2023 LENGTH: 0:00:41 LOCATION: Rome CATEGORY: POLITICS SHOTLIST: 1. various of the meeting between Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni and European Council President Charles Michel STORYLINE: Migration was a key focus of talks between Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni and European Council President Charles Michel in Rome on Monday. The leaders discussed key areas where Brussels and Rome are at odds, issues likely to be on the agenda at the upcoming Special European Council meeting. Michel had traveled to Rome in preparation for the meeting on Feb. 9-10 in Brussels. Addressing the media after closed-door talks with Michel, Meloni said current rules on migration, an area where Italy has sought stronger restrictions than those of the European Union (EU) as a whole, gave too much responsibility to countries where refugees first land in Europe. Italy is one such country, along with Greece and Spain. "
