Interior minister Matteo Salvini has handed his French counterpart Christophe Castaner a list of fugitive Italian former leftist militants who are wanted by Italy on terrorism charges, Salvini said on Friday.

''The list cannot be made available for security reasons. Extradition requests have been made to France," Salvini said after a European Union interior ministers summit in Paris.

Populist president Giuseppe Conte in March asked France's president Emmanuel Macron to allow the extradition of former far-left militants who were given lifelong protection there under a policy adopted by socialist French president Francois Mitterrand in 1985.

The issue was highlighted by the case of former Marxist communist militant Cesare Battisti, who was extradited to Italy in January after living for more than a decade in Brazil. He had previously lived in France for 16 years and first fled there from Italy in 1981 after escaping from jail.

Battisti is currently serving a life sentence in Italy for four murders committed during the 1970s.
