"Corriere della Sera": Refugee camps will come under the jurisdiction

The Italian government has decided to review and modify the agreement with Albania for the refugee camps in Gjadra and Shëngjin.

According to the Italian daily "Corriere della Sera" , the government is considering the option of removing Italian jurisdiction over the camps and transferring it to the Albanian state.

The hypotheses currently being considered are not only related to the resumption of the transfer of migrants who have been rescued at sea and come from countries that Italy has included on the safe list, but also those who are already in hotspots and reception centers.

This was discussed at a meeting last Friday, during which the possibility emerged that the Albanian centers could be transformed into CPRs – dedicated exclusively to the repatriation of refugees deemed not to have the conditions to receive international protection from Italy – or into reception centers. And at this point it cannot be ruled out that they would be managed from Tirana and no longer from Rome.

In any case, while waiting for the opinion of the Luxembourg judges, the executive reiterates its will to move forward.

And that is why another summit is planned for today. The meeting could also focus on discussing the new decree-law – hypothesized, among others, by the Minister of European Affairs Tommaso Foti – which in the government's plans could provide a credible legal solution after the conflicting sentences of judges on pre-trial detention in Albania.

But the opposition objects.

"The persistence is diabolical, the government must stop this madness that is creating an unprecedented clash between powers and a waste of resources," explains Simona Bonafè, leader of the Democratic Party group in the Chamber's Constitutional Affairs Committee, for whom the executive "insists on the unacceptable attempt to elect its own judges and rewrite the rules." For the head of the Avs group in the same committee, Filiberto Zaratti, "they have gotten into a mess, they must stop wasting Italians' money."
