The agreement signed between Italy and Albania for housing immigrants from North Africa is part of the draft calendar of the Assembly of Albania for the period November 27-December 22.

Meanwhile a resolution has been approved by the Italian government for the agreement signed on November 6 by Albanian Prime Minister Edi Rama and Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni in Rome, for the construction in Albania of two centers for housing immigrants who come to Italian shores.

According to the agreement, the landing port for the immigrants will be Shengjin in the northwest of Albania, while the neighboring area of Gjadri will be the camp where their accommodation will be built. The maximum capacity of the number that the center will host in Albania will not be more than 3 thousand immigrants.

Italy assumes all expenses for hospital care according to the Albanian legislation, after the administration of the hospital treatments of the Albanian side. The immigrants will wait for the answer for asylum from the Italian authorities in the structure that will be built by the Italians.

The duration of the agreement will be 5 years, but it can be automatically extended for another 5 years if one of the parties does not communicate otherwise.

The votes in favor were 189 in favor and 126 against, the votes against were all from the opposition that criticized the agreement.
