"I have called a meeting for tomorrow on the topic of Albania to understand how to proceed". Thus the President of the Council Giorgia Meloni in response to a question at the end of the North-South summit in Saariselka, in Finnish Lapland . "It seems to me that the Court of Cassation has agreed with the government, it is the right of governments to establish which countries are safe" while the judges can "enter into the individual case, not disapply in toto".
On the centers in Albania, "we had problems interpreting the new rules, we are overcoming them" , continued the Prime Minister, "we need to think outside the box: Italy was the first to make an agreement with a non-EU country , we are having some problems interpreting the rules but we are overcoming them. I think it is a new way of addressing this problem".
"The fact that these nations (Italy, Greece, Sweden and Finland, ed.) are here together to talk about how to address the main issues - the Prime Minister added - shows that we have understood that the world has changed and now we can address the challenges that we have ahead . This initiative is very valuable and we should repeat it in the future. There are several challenges for the EU, but two in particular. One is the security of citizens and defense. We must all do more to ensure that the pillar of NATO is strengthened because it remains the cornerstone of security and defense. We must be able to look not only to the eastern flank, but also to other places".
As for the Salvini hypothesis at the Viminale , Giorgia Meloni specifies: «Today both he and I are happy with the excellent work that the Minister of the Interior is doing».
