Europe has to choose: either to abandon the path of austerity and “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 citizens.
The premier Matteo Renzi puts his hands forward, waiting for the letter from the European Union today, will arrive on his table and that of the Minister of the Economy Pier Carlo Padoan. A letter where you say that no, the Law of Stability for 2017 is not good because it provides an overdraft of the excessive deficit.

The doubts of the European Commission
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 manoeuvre, after that at the end of September had reached an agreement on the roof of the 2.2% deficit, nominal, rose 2.3% in the proposal actually submitted. And are leaked to the reserves on the performance of the structural deficit.
The Commission then approved the figures submitted by Italy for the emergency of migrants and for the post-earthquake reconstruction in central Italy, but they would be left open two other fronts: the new revenue, not structural, but related to too many “one-off”, and the national plan for the protection of the anti-seismic is difficult to consider as the result of an exceptional circumstance, in a country highly seismic Italy.
The battle inside the EU
While the Commission is going to send you to Italy (and other 5-6 countries including Belgium, Spain, Portugal, Estonia, and maybe France and/or Holland) letters with requests for clarification on the draft budget prior to the judgement, expected for the end of the month, the Matteo Renzi and Pier Carlo Padoan, launched a political message is unequivocal: “it is Not important, is not decisive, is 0.1% or this budget,” said the premier host of ‘ Half” on RaiTre, minimizing on incoming letters (“physiological”).
The element of discussion with the Eu, has continued Renzi “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 deep to change the direction of Europe.
Padoan: we or Hungary
The minister of Economy, Pier Carlo Padoan in an interview with the Republic he then clarified that “Europe must 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, the one that migrants opposed the walls. But so would the end come.”
The clash against the Countries of the east
Already, in a 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 procedures of infringement for those who do not respect 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.”
The silence of Brussels
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.
