Keir Starmer expressed interest in assessing Italy's scheme to send asylum seekers to Albania, aiming to understand its effectiveness before committing to a similar plan.
Starmer recently canceled the previous government's expensive Rwanda deal but is now considering new strategies for asylum processing, at a time of increased migration into Europe.
Critics have spoken out against Italy’s plan, which proposes opening camps for asylum seekers, with the capacity to hold up to 3,000 individuals, raising concerns over humane treatment.
The backdrop to these discussions is heightened European interest in asylum management, as demonstrated by German Chancellor Olaf Scholz's actions surrounding the Rwanda facilities.
