European leaders have said they are in discussions to resolve the case of 49 refugees and migrants trapped on the Mediterranean since December 21.
Ten European countries, including Germany, Luxemburg, Portugal and Romania, are offering to host the stranded passengers on the condition that Malta provides its docks for their disembarkation.
Valletta said it would accept the proposal if said countries agreed to take in another batch of 249 people rescued in Maltese waters between istmas and New Years Eve.
