ROME (Reuters) - Italy's prime minister on Monday vowed to push ahead with a plan to deport irregular migrants to camps built in Albania, which has been stalled by national judges, saying the government had a popular mandate to curb arrivals.
Giorgia Meloni's right-wing government has built two facilities in the Balkan country to hold migrants while processing their asylum requests, but Rome courts have issued repeated counter orders, bringing anyone taken there to Italy.
