Meloni’s Migration Deal Called Into Question by Albanian Court

Albania’s Constitutional Court has halted a parliamentary vote on the asylum agreement between the country’s Prime Minister Edi Rama and his Italian counterpart Giorgia Meloni.

Responding to a lawsuit from two of the country’s opposition parties, the court president Holta Zacaj said in a live videostream that upon reviewing the case, justices had “automatically suspended the procedures for ratification in the assembly,” snarling the cooperation protocol signed between the two countries last month in Rome.
