Giancarlo Giorgetti was in the USA. He met Trump's son-in-law Jared Kushner and Treasury Secretary Mnuchin. The overseas journey of the Undersecretary to the Council Presidency takes place at a "delicate" moment for the Italian government, in light of the upcoming elections for the European elections that will inevitably cause repercussions in the majority balance. Giorgetti wanted to reassure American investors, explaining the goodness of the Italian economic maneuver. The Trump administration for its part "she is not worried about the stability of the Italian government, but asks for a credible executive".
Americans are concerned about the slowdown in growth in the eurozone and in Italy. Italy needs to lighten the tax burden (flat tax) and implement policies that favor investments. Giorgetti assures that there is already a decree law being examined by the commissions. The provision contains precisely those arguments aimed at growth. There is talk of de-bureaucratising the procedures for the award of public works and the stop of exploration in the energy sector, where several American companies threaten to take the government to court.
Some American officials have criticized Italy for the fact that Venezuelan interim president Guaidó has not yet been supported. Giorgetti, in this regard, specified that Italy is treating the matter with great caution due to the presence of a strong Italian community in the country. On the issue of entrusting Huawei's Chinese with the development of technologies such as the new 5G network, the Americans expect the allies to be cautious in their choice.
