The political and social debate on citizenship reform has taken center stage at the Meeting for Friendship Among Peoples in Rimini.

Italian Foreign Minister and Forza Italia leader, Antonio Tajani, has been vocal about his party's proposal linking citizenship to the education cycle, known as 'ius scholae'.

Despite not being part of the government's official program, Tajani insists on discussing the topic, emphasizing that being Italian or European is about personal identity and values, not ancestry.

This stance has sparked division within the ruling coalition, with the League party opposing changes to the current law.

Meanwhile, Forza Italia aims to expand its influence by attracting centrist voters, further complicating the political landscape.

The debate continues to stir emotions and political strategies as parties navigate this contentious issue.
