Italy's 'Guantanamo': Inside the centres for migrants set to open in Albania
Friday, 2 August 2024 Italy's controversial plan to send asylum seekers to Albania is expected to begin within a few weeks, following many delays and strong criticism.

Trump's vision for a dominant Middle East strategy is unraveling as key Gulf allies—Saudi Arabia, the UAE, and Qatar—reject being used as staging grounds for potential U.S. strikes on Iran. With regional tensions soaring, Washington faces a major setback in its plans to counter Tehran. As the Biden administration scrambles for alternatives, the refusal signals a shifting power dynamic in the Middle East.

After meetings in D.C., JD Vance joined Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni for an Easter lunch in Rome. Meloni, who praised her "fantastic" White House meeting, reaffirmed her support for Trump’s stance against "woke ideology." Trump, who has been critical of the EU, made an exception for Meloni, his only invited EU leader in January. Meloni is pushing for U.S. tariffs on the EU to be reduced, promising increased gas purchases and Italian investments in the U.S. Trump accepted her invitation to meet European leaders in Rome, but no date has been set.
