Italian Court Blocks Meloni's Albania Migrant Plan Again

An Italian court has rejected Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni's plan to detain asylum seekers in Albania, referring the initiative to the EU's top court. The ruling mandates that seven migrants brought to Albania must be taken to Italy, questioning the legality of designating certain countries as 'safe' for quick returns. This decision challenges Meloni's strategy to deter Mediterranean crossings and has implications for other European leaders considering similar approaches. Critics argue the plan is costly and politically motivated, while Meloni may use the court's rejection to rally her base.
