Meloni argues that the government has changed Europe by delivering on its programme and will pursue it with determination.

She says the solution faced opposition from the Italian and European Left, but is now a tool available to all of Europe.

Meloni frames the Albania-Italy approach as a model that is now accessible to the entire European Union despite past political opposition.

Migration management is presented as a top priority for both Italian and European policy.

The Albania scheme has drawn interest from other EU countries and the UK, with the UK considering similar approaches after changes to Rwanda policy.

The Albania model has attracted attention from other EU members and the United Kingdom following Labour’s changes to the Rwanda policy.

Meloni spoke from Evian at the G7 summit reacting to the EP’s approval.

She released a social media video from the G7 summit in Evian describing the approval.

The message emphasizes defending borders, reducing migrant boat landings, fighting traffickers, and immediate repatriation of those not entitled to remain.

The European Parliament has approved a regulation to strengthen member states’ ability to deport migrants and establish repatriation hubs in third countries, including Albania, following Italy’s model.

The regulation is hailed as a historic move to quickly repatriate those not entitled to stay and to accelerate expulsion processes.

Meloni credits the regulation to the Italian government’s work and says it will enable swift repatriation of individuals not entitled to remain in the EU.
