Approximately 3,000 far-right protesters gathered in Rome on June 13 for an anti-migration event that coincided with the launch of Roberto Vannacci's Futuro Nazionale party. A petition on remigration gathered sufficient signatures for parliamentary consideration, while police maintained separation from a counter-event. Supported details come from Straits Times reporting; larger turnout figures remain unverified.
Far-right mobilization around Vannacci’s new party reflects an organized push to normalize exclusionary policies, yet the smaller turnout compared with pro-migration demonstrators indicates broader public support for inclusion.
