The company said it reflects the determination of both Pakistani and Saudi leaders to further deepen the existing strategic relationship in all fields.

Most migrants come from countries such as Afghanistan, Pakistan, Somalia, and Iran. “More than 90 percent of migrants arriving in Italy from Afghanistan are using Turkey as transit,” Yildiz said.

According to her, migrant smugglers are one of the key actors that are influential in determining the route and, sometimes, diverting the routes. In the last few years, migrant smugglers have been “marketing” Italy more as the destination for migrants since migrants are facing increasing pushback from the Greek authorities.

“One of the reasons might be that. Because there are increasing number of pushbacks by the Greek authorities. This is what we criticise a lot because this is completely infringing the international law and human rights law.”

But the route to Italy through the Mediterranean Sea is dangerous, long, and expensive. Italy can be a transit with people using the route to go to Germany or North europeans countries or a final destination for those with families.
