Italy Introduces Plan to Limit Foreign Student Numbers and Ban Face-Covering Garments in Schools

Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni has announced plans to introduce legislation capping the number of foreign students in Italian classrooms and banning face-covering garments, including burqas and niqabs, in schools. The proposed measures are part of a broader effort to strengthen national identity and promote Italian culture. The plan aims to limit the growth of foreign student enrollment and ensure that public services are accessible only to EU citizens. The legislation is expected to be debated in Parliament soon.
