BRUSSELS – Europe must choose: either abandon the path of austerity and of ‘zerovirgola’ and stay with the Italy, or continue to bow the head to the countries, such as Hungary, who are ignorant of the rules on migrants. And in this case, to risk the finish on a dossier that has direct impact on the citizens. While the Commission is preparing to send to Italy and the other 5-6 countries the letters with requests for clarification on the draft budget prior to the judgement, expected for the end of the month, Matteo Renzi and Pier Carlo Padoan, launched a political message is unequivocal. And you learn that Brussels is committed to a substantial ok on the expense of migrants and the post-earthquake reconstruction, while it would have no doubt about the too many one-off and the national plan for the safeguard anti-seismic.
“it is Not important, is not decisive, is 0.1% or this law of balance” said the premier host of “In Half an hour” on RaiTre, minimizing on incoming letters (“physiological”). “The element of discussion with the Eu is the european budget in the coming years, we are engaged in a historic battle because the Eu budget keep together rights and duties,” he added, reiterating the line announced on Thursday, to the meps of the Pd and sustained after the eu summit: Italy, guide of the front progressive the european, is committed to a profound change of direction in Europe. In anticipation of the letters that today they will leave for Italy and other countries, including Belgium, Spain, Portugal, Estonia, and maybe France and/or Holland, the premier move the debate on a political level.
In what terms, he clarified the minister of the Economy, Pier Carlo Padoan (“an essay”, for Renzi) in an interview with the Republic. “Europe has to choose a side”, or: “Can you accept the fact that our deficit steps from 2 to 2.3% to cope with the emergency of migrants, or to choose the way to Hungarian, that migrants opposed the walls. But so would the end come.” Already in the press conference at the conclusion of the summit, which among other things has managed to stop the threat of further economic sanctions on Russia for actions in Syria, Renzi had argued that Italy does not expect a rejection, rather, the infringement proceedings for those not complying with the rules on migrants. And he had anticipated that in the battle for the future european budget 2019-2026, Italy will not be willing to continue to give money (“every year, we pay 20 billion and we continue with the 12″) that go in favour of the countries of the east if they continue to refuse solidarity to the distribution of migrants. And he also pointed out that in order to exit from the crisis “, the american model of Obama has worked, the austerity and the european no.”
A level of comparison of “high”, one set from Italy with Brussels, which officially does not comment on the words of Renzi nor those of Padoan. In the Commission no one wants to create problems for Italy in view of the referendum, but there is a group of hawks that continues to consider the rules of the fiscal compact (“voted by Monti, Berlusconi, Bersani,” said Renzi, stressing that it intends to “put into question”) the most important of any reasoning political. The european sources already in recent days have reported on the “surprise” with which the upper floors of the Commission has been accepted the draft of the maneuver, after which at the end of September had reached an agreement on the roof of the 2.2% deficit, nominal, rose to 2.3% in the proposal actually submitted. And are leaked to the reserves on the performance of the structural deficit.
Yesterday it was learned that the Commission would approve the figures presented by Italy for emergency migrants, and for post-earthquake reconstruction in central Italy. In the clarification letter, as we know, the doubts raised would be mainly two: on the front of the new revenue shows that are not structural, but related to too many ‘one-off’, while that of the outputs, there are doubts about the plan, the national protection and anti-seismic. Difficult to consider him as the result of an exceptional circumstance, in a country highly seismic Italy.
In Rome, meanwhile, still seems to have assumed a definite form in the text of the law of balance, waiting in Parliament on 20 October, but not yet arrived in the Commission. “We are absolutely in the rule. There is a term, the 20th of October, which is not mandatory”, it is justified Renzi, ensuring that the government will present the law in a week.
