Berlin attacker Anis Amri killed in Milan
Mr Minitti praised the two police officers who had apprehended Amri, and said the operation showed how Italy's security system was working well.
"As soon as this person entered our country, a fugitive wanted across Europe, we immediately identified him and neutralised him," the minister said.
German Interior Minister Thomas Maiziere said the case again highlighted the importance of close European and transatlantic co-operation in combating terrorism.
The end of the manhunt was not the end of the investigation, he said, as the authorities were still seeking Amri's "network of accomplices".
Mr de Maiziere added: "The terrorist threat facing Germany has not changed, unfortunately it remains high."
