Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni’s government on Wednesday approved a bill containing provisions to curb illegal migration — including the ability to impose naval blockades against migrant vessels.
The bill comes hours after the European Parliament approved a new series of changes to E.U. asylum rules, allowing E.U. member states to deny asylum and deport migrants from countries deemed safe or because they could apply for asylum at a non-E.U. country.

Meloni, in a roughly two minute-long video published on social media, explained that the bill is compatible with the new EU rules and is applicable in cases of serious threats to public order or national security, such as the risk of terrorism, but also on instances of exceptional migratory pressure to prevent the crossing of Italian territorial waters and to take migrants on board those boats subject to interdiction to third countries.
“To all those who said it was impossible, I would like to remind you that nothing is truly impossible for those who are determined to do something, and we are determined to ensure the security of our borders and the safety of our citizens, and we will use all the tools at our disposal to guarantee this security,” Meloni said.
