 The difficulties which dispersed continental Europe Brexit can be easily summed up by this statement of Matteo Renzi: “The British vote weighs a ton in the EU’s history.” The foreign ministers of the EU Member States will meet in Warsaw this afternoon, while the president of the Italian Council held this morning a telephone conversation with US Secretary of State, John Kerry, who today will be in Brussels to see the ‘ high representative for European foreign policy, Federica Mogherini, and the Secretary general of NATO, Jens Stoltenberg. There is a lot of activity from the parts of Brussels and the same Renzi, before flying to Berlin for a meeting with Angela Merkel and Francois Hollande and President of the European Union, Donald Tusk, speaking in the Senate and then the House. It announces such requests Italy will present at the summit this afternoon and to the European Council tomorrow. Meanwhile, Jean-Claude Junker, President of the European Commission, has announced that will not participate at the Berlin Summit. He has spoken harshly against Brexit with equal severity and responded to the invitation of Merkel. Moral: do not go to Germany because, as it turns out, would have preferred the Brexit was managed by the European institutions and not by an intergovernmental summit.

Renzi: “We can not ignore the referendum results” Renzi in Parliament calls on deputies and senators not to ignore what happened in recent days in London. “We are facing a historical event. About minimizes or exploits makes a political mistake. We can not turn back and pretend nothing happened. You can not put a piece.” “If today, in spite of a large part of the forecast of extraordinary turnout the British people has spoken, we can not ignore it. If it passes the message that the people vote and elsewhere puts a piece on what the people decided, it undermines democracy. “

Renzi:” Italy ready to do its part “” I do not enter here into the merits of Article 50 “which will open negotiations for the exit of Britain from the EU “and the rules of the game. They are dynamic we face at European level. But Italy says that all Europe can do except open for a year a discussion on procedures after discussing a year on the negotiations. So we lose sight of the referendum message “English. For the Italian prime minister is the time of responsibility. It ‘s time to believe in a Europe that can create opportunities and not just be a source of fear. “The one that opens tomorrow will be a European summit to be focused on the revitalization of Europe and not only on UK outbound rules. We have to learn from what happened to bring Europe to deal with social and not only to make bureaucratic battles. ” Italy is ready to do its part: “For us, Europe is our home – said Renzi – the reasons why we criticized from within the European institutions are made stronger by the expression of the British people.”

reactions Dura the response of the Movement 5 Stars. Those uttered by Renzi today, attacked Alessandro Di Battista, they are “empty words. The only thing she has to say is that in Europe we need a basic income.” And again: “You are totally detached from reality – the uproar also referring to the result of the administrative – otherwise she could not utter the phrase ‘Europe should speak less of banks and more than’ values. She’s the dismantler of shame and sense of decency. ” Battista has targeted “the decrees approved by the government in favor of the banks” and “the government’s hypocrisy: you should put a tax on hypocrisy, especially in Europe and in this Parliament.” Therefore, he stressed: “Enough with this story that we are Eurosceptics. We want to stay in Europe, but we want a referendum on the euro. In this Europe we find ourselves, but not you who have betrayed its founding values.” The leader of Forza Italy in the House, Renato Brunetta, turning to the prime minister, pointed to “one thing to do: the growth, because it is unthinkable that in eight years of crisis, Germany has accumulated a surplus unbearable hurting all the other countries of ‘ EU: today at the Berlin summit must ask only one thing, that Germany reflazioni “. While in the Senate, where Renzi spoke before speaking in the House, Giulio Tremonti argued that the European dial the new constitution “is not and it will not be a protective shield, but rather an additional danger”. And then, referring to the referendum on Brexit, noted: “those who sow referendum not necessarily collects plebiscites. That is the England of the future accident. Fortunately, it is still occurred before the Constitution came into operation. We could say that was not anyone’s fault, but on this, at least for a time, in the interest of the country, listen to us. “
