Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni's new plan for migrant centers in Albania pleases Brussels, so the EU Commission has given the green light to the idea.

The European Commission "is aware of recent developments" regarding the adoption of a decree by the Italian government to make the Gjadri center in Albania a detention and repatriation center for migrants.

Ok from Brussels

The measure, according to Brussels, "is in principle in line with European law, because Italian legislation would be applied centrally and we monitor the implementation of the Italy-Albania protocol, as well as staying in contact."

This was the response of a Commission spokesperson when asked about the decree-law that the Italian government approved last Friday, reports Corriere della Sera.

"As for innovative solutions, we have said that we are ready to explore them, always in accordance with obligations under EU and international law and fundamental rights."

Markus Lammert, spokesman for the European Commission for Home Affairs and Immigration, responded this way during the daily briefing of the Community Executive, to a journalist who had requested confirmation of what the Italian Interior Minister, Matteo Piantedosi, stated, according to which the European Commission would not have raised objections to the Italian decree.

The provision allows migrants awaiting deportation, who already lack the right to asylum, to be transferred to Albania.

The measure provides that migrants can stay in the facilities for up to 18 months, the time necessary to complete deportation procedures to their countries of origin.

In addition to the cost problem, the decree had raised doubts as the practice of transferring migrants to countries that are neither of origin nor transit is not foreseen by current laws.

But the Italian initiative, Lammert specified, is "different from the concept of a repatriation center" that the Commission proposed in a new European regulation on March 11, and which provides that in such places the legislation of the third country hosting them on its territory can be applied.

Brussels, the official recalled, "is working to define the legal framework and minimum requirements for this type of innovative solutions", which should be based "on a detailed international agreement and should only deal with third countries that respect human rights and the principle of non-refoulement".

The Rome Initiative does not implement this new concept introduced in a regulation that has not yet entered into force, the spokesperson explained.

Melon celebrates

"The pact with Albania is a model that was initially criticized, but then gained more and more consensus," Meloni asserted in a video message sent to the Border Security Summit, a meeting organized by Keir Starmer's British government on the topic of border security and the fight against irregular entry.

"The European Union is today proposing the creation of repatriation centers in third countries. This means that we were right and the courage to embark on this path has been rewarded," Meloni added.
