Romania issues travel warnings for Italy and France due to protests

The Romanian Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MAE) has issued travel advisories for citizens traveling to or transiting through Italy and France due to planned demonstrations and disruptions.

In Italy, road transport protests are expected to continue until October 27, 2026. These actions are primarily affecting traffic in the Campania, Apulia, Calabria, and Sicily regions. Significant disruptions are reported in the Naples metropolitan area and on the A1 and A30 motorways, where truck traffic may face temporary restrictions and delays.

In France, numerous demonstrations and protest actions are scheduled for Saturday, October 24, 2026. These mobilizations may include urban center marches and blockades at road intersections, roundabouts, fuel stations, railway nodes, and oil depots. Travelers should expect potential disruptions to public transport, road, rail, and air travel, particularly in major urban areas.
