  "account": "For the second year in a row, the detention center for asylum seekers that Italy built in Albania has been almost empty. In this time, these facilities built by Rome outside its territory have accumulated judicial setbacks related to the asylum system and controversy over their excessive cost. And, on the other hand, when images of the Ceuta influx spread like wildfire around the world, Italian Interior Minister Matteo Piantedosi took advantage of Tuesday's EU Council, which addressed the crisis in the Spanish city in North Africa, to raise the need for the EU to build this type of facility to combat irregular immigration. He called for “the courage to embark on the path of innovative solutions,” he said in his speech to his colleagues, using that aseptic language that seeks to avoid the controversial connotation of the initiative.",
  "summary": "The Member States that support these facilities want to reach initial agreements with third countries before the end of the year.",
