Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer said he is “interested” in learning about Italy’s scheme to send migrants rescued at sea to Albania to process asylum claims.
The British leader is meeting Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, as Italy receives the highest number of migrant arrivals, but has recently seen a dramatic fall.
"I’ve long believed that prevention and stopping people travelling in the first place is one of the best ways to deal with this particular issue”, said Keir Starmer.
The pair will discuss what is known as irregular migration, among other issues, as both countries aim to reduce arrivals by sea.
