Since being elected, Meloni has had a major influence over the EU’s immigration policy, but the new Migration and Asylum Pact may have major consequences for Italy. So what exactly is in the new pact? And has Meloni’s hardline policy backfired?

How can the EU demand a passport it's not even a country? The EU is nothing more than a recantation of the Nazis.. they controed every ones lives including who lived and who died.. in the name of God people of Europe wake up.

but when leaders of the world today is doing the exact same thing, it's now suddenly ok?

How you travel is key. If you sit for say two hours in a cramped 737 after having spent two hours already at the airport to spend time in a hotel at the destination – not so good. If you travel in your own car to your secondary home or rented house in another EU Member State – that's a totally different story.

i wanna go on a sunny holiday to greece or spain or something but im just worried about the vaccine passport thing. i hate that shit. getting vaccinated should be a choice and i don't think it's fair to punish those who don't wanna take it (we all have different reasons to not wanna take it)
