"Italian PM Giorgia Melonia warned of the huge impact from 'uncontrolled migration' - and said it was a key part of the 'polycrisis' facing Europe - as leaders attended the latest European Political Community summit in Yerevan on Monday. "Obviously, we know that uncontrolled migration flows put citizens' security under pressure, and when exploited as a hybrid threat, even the stability of the states. But it's not all. It also affects economy, straining public resources and impacting on labour market. It weakens competitiveness. This weakens competitiveness by increasing uncertainty and social tensions." she told the audience. "So it's not migration. It is migration, it is economy, it is democracy, it is competitiveness, it is energy, it is security. And if I take one of the other topics, I can link them all the same way. So, first of all, we cannot face only one piece of this polycrisis," she added. The EPC includes around 50 EU and non-EU countries - EU member states, the UK, Ukraine and Western Balkan states. It's widely seen as the 'brainchild' of France's Emmanuel Macron, formed shortly after the outbreak of the Russia-Ukraine conflict in 2022. "
