Austria warned not to risk "raising ghosts of Europe's past"

According to Reuters, Renzi "did not specify what he meant by 'the past'."

Austria wants to use the fence to channel migrants at the Brenner Pass border crossing in the Alps.

Both countries are members of the Schengen zone - "but free movement has been jeopardized by the reimposition of controls at some major crossings by countries affected by an influx of migrants fleeing armed conflict and deprivation in the Middle East and Africa," the agency reported, quoted by Tanjug.
