Italian immigrants can only be naturalized if they have lived for at least 10 years.

According to Xinhua News Agency's Lianhe Times, Italian Interior Minister maloney recently reiterated his tough stance against relaxing the naturalization conditions for immigrants. In an interview with Italian national television 1, he said: "I have always insisted that nationality is a reward for immigrants who try to integrate into Italy. The legal residence period of 10 year is correct and basically meets the conditions of other European countries. It is wrong to shorten this time limit. "

Maloney said: "Everyone remembers that the recent explosion in Milan was caused by an immigrant from a non-EU member state. That man has lived in Italy for nine years and has not yet become an Italian citizen. If the bill to relax the naturalization conditions of immigrants is implemented, this person may become an Italian and become the first Italian terrorist. I don't think this is a good thing. "

Maloney finally stressed: "Combating illegal immigrants and crimes is closely related to promoting immigrants' integration and employment. This work involves not only the central government, but also regional and various levels of government. We should increase investment in this area. We should know that promoting the integration and employment of immigrants means strengthening security and cracking down on crime. "
