Leaders of the northern regions of Italy have refused to take in any more African migrants rescued from the Mediterranean. More than 50,000 people have arrived this year alone, most in unsafe ships from Libya, and over 1,500 have drowned attempting to make the voyage. Italian Prime Minister Renzi said that the EU needed to reform its current system for handling migrants. The leaders in the Lombardy, Liguria, and Veneto regions of Italy claim that their regions cannot accept any more refugees. This has put even more strain on the Italian government.
