Italy's Meloni Welcomes EU's Stricter Immigration Policy

Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni welcomed the European Parliament's approval of a stricter EU immigration policy. Meloni stated that Europe is finally following the right path, adopting a line that Italy has strongly supported. According to the new policy, the possibilities of identifying a country of repatriation for irregular migrants are increased, including third countries, beyond the countries of origin. Meloni emphasized that this is an important step towards more effective repatriation, strengthening border controls and providing a more reliable immigration policy in Europe.
