"Start a constructive dialogue with the EU on the maneuver" and "keep Italy away from financial instability": these are the words used by the President of the Republic, Sergio Mattarella, in a letter addressed to the premier, Giuseppe Conte. The head of state, in authorizing the presentation of the budget bill to the Chambers, invites the government to keep the confrontation with Brussels alive. “It is my duty to urge the government to develop - also during the parliamentary examination - confrontation and constructive dialogue with the European institutions”, wrote Mattarella. "I would like to address the Government, with the common intention of protecting Italy's fundamental interests, with the aim of a budget law that defends Italian savings, strengthens the confidence of families, businesses and economic operators and sets the Italy protected from financial instability ”, added the president.
The letter arrived after weeks on fire between Rome and Brussels, following the rejection of our maneuver, the fibrillation of the markets and the spread that fails to fall. But Palazzo Chigi, with a note, tried to reassure the Colle, ensuring "a fruitful and constant dialogue with Europe". Conte, however, stressed that "the government intends to relaunch growth and employment, with particular attention to public investment, the creation of a regulatory and institutional environment conducive to private investment and the fight against poverty and inequality". . Low tones and absolute harmony. Like that ostentatiously also by Lega and M5s, who have made it known that they are not worried and that the letter is not "considered" in any way "an act of hostility", but a common feeling for "the interest of the country".
