Fox News
Agriculture Minister Francesco Lollobrigida from Italy’s conservative Brothers of Italy party was criticized after advocating for a higher Italian birthrate.
"We can't give in to the idea of ethnic replacement – ‘the Italians are having fewer children, so we'll replace them with someone else.’ That's not the way," Lollobrigida reportedly said at a trade union conference on Tuesday.

He also reportedly declared, "We have to incentivize births. We have to build welfare to allow everyone to work and have a family."
