English seriously hampering the EU’s history. ” Before flying to Berlin for the directory to three with Angela Merkel and Francois Hollande, Prime Minister Matteo Renzi makes communications to the House of the Senate. On the eve of the European Council has become crucial in the light of the British referendum on Brexit are many expectations of what steps will be taken to reverse the trend of a common policy that has proved weak and not without responsibility. “I do not enter here into the merits of Article 50,” which will open negotiations for the EU output of Britain or “rules of the game.” “They are dynamics we face at European level.

People shall decide, do not try to put a piece
“If today, despite a large part of the forecast, with extraordinary number “won the Brexit” all we can do except to ignore it. If the people vote and elsewhere are trying to put the piece on what the people have decided, it undermines the democratic game.

This is the line that we have been for two years, first in blessed solitude then with more consensus. Today we are at a crossroads. ”
