Virginia Raggi told an immigration summit of European city leaders mayors need to be the first to welcome refugees with “warmth, shelter and accommodation”.
She was speaking just days after a Moroccan family was prevented from moving into a council flat given to them by the authorities after neighbours shouted: “We do not want these n*****s.”
Italy has seen the largest increase in migrant arrivals to Europe this year after the European Union (EU) made a deal with Turkey which meant migrants headed to Italy instead of Greece.
Ms Raggi, said: “Our cities seem to be closed off with their self-interest and the mayors are the ones who should give the first reception.
“We must guarantee human warmth, shelter, accommodation.
“The attitude that we have seen, unfortunately, offends our dignity as mayors and people.
“For this we must take action, even more in the suburbs, which are the most abandoned parts of the city, where there is a risk of a war between the poor.”
