EU migration and asylum policy reform

Overview

The implementation of the EU Migration and Asylum Pact has entered a phase of active, albeit contentious, execution. Following the June 2026 entry into force, several nations have begun asylum seeker transfers to Italy. Austria has conducted four transfers via public transport, while Switzerland and Finland are preparing to resume similar returns.

Despite these movements, diplomatic friction remains acute. Italy continues to contest transfers involving secondary migration flows recorded before the Pact took effect and maintains its demand for compensation from Germany due to the presence of German-flagged NGO vessels in the Mediterranean. Tensions escalated after Italy detained the Sea-Watch 5 for 45 days, alleging rescue procedure violations. In response, Italian Interior Minister Matteo Piantedosi suggested that if German-flagged vessels perform rescues, Germany should take responsibility for those migrants.

Italy is also pursuing divergent border strategies. It has maintained a suspension of Schengen border controls with Spain, citing security and terrorism prevention as priorities. While Italy seeks bilateral agreements with Germany to resolve technical issues regarding “Dublin migrants,” the political landscape remains polarized. Italian officials have credited the current government with securing victories regarding the reform of the Pact, including the establishment of “safe third countries” and accelerated repatriation procedures. Meanwhile, critics have characterized Italy’s border measures as “purely propagandistic.”
