Italy puts the veto on the revision of the multiannual Eu budget. To announce in Brussels the under-secretary for European Affairs Sandro Gozi, who said the decision arrive because of a “lack of resources for italy’s priorities: immigration, safety, youth unemployment and research.” “We do not accept walls with our money,” said Catania, the president of the Council Matteo Renzi.

Italy blocks review the Eu budget

“We are tired of the ambiguities and contradictions in europe. We are tired of a Europe that says some things and then makes them not to,” said undersecretary for European Affairs Sandro Gozi that in the margin of the General Affairs Council in Brussels, announced the decision of the Italian “confirm the reservation”, and then veto the proposal for the revision of the multi-annual budget 2014-2020 of the Eu. Here the decision of A review that the Italian government defines unacceptable, because it is a “lack of guarantees for the increase of resources in favor of our priorities, ” he explained, Immigration, safety, youth unemployment and programs for the research”. “We were ready to approve the proposal from the Commission, he added,” but the compromise proposal made by the presidency of slovakia is not consistent with the ambitions of the Eu”. “We hope that our position to push Europe to b e more consistent with itself, to put the money where it makes the words and the priority, he emphasized, in recent months, Europe has spoken of security, of immigration, to do more for youth unemployment, to become less technocratic and capable of responding better to the needs of the citizens: speak of the political priorities without putting adequate resources is an exercise that we are no longer willing to accept.”

“If Europe does not change, is the beginning of disintegration.”

“We are very tired of a Europe that is small with great things and big things small, and we are convinced that if Europe does not change we are facing at the beginning of the disintegration of europe”. “We need a good shock, he added, the under-secretary for European Affairs – the wake-up time was played with the Brexit, and we have been sleeping, had to play with Bratislava and there we are asleep, now, many say that he plays with Trump: if we don’t want to die of insomnia, it will be good that we use it to change Europe. Only in this way we will respond to the needs of the citizens.”

Renzi: “No walls with our money”

“We have put the first veto in Brussels – said the president of the Council Matteo Renzi from the University of Catania, for the inauguration of the Tower Biological “Ferdinando Latteri” – it did the undersecretary Gozi for me, why don’t we accept that with our money up the walls”. “They wanted to leave – has attacked the premier Renzi – the sicilian to be the responsible for immigration, save thousands of lives, and to take charge of the solutions and of the complexity of the story. And then fill with money the european Countries that do not accept not only an agreement which they have signed, but with our money up the walls”.

“Italy needs more time”

“in Spite of the vast majority, there are still the strengths of Italy and the abstention of the United Kingdom,” said Ivan Korcok, minister of Foreign and European Affairs of Slovakia, he pointed out how the proposal provides for an additional $ 6 billion to support the expenses of the “main priorities”, namely, migration flows, management of the external borders, the policies for employment and growth. Slovakia, a Country of turn at the Eu presidency, is to know “have reached a broad consensus” on the revision of the budget, but “to respect the reservation made by Italy, which needs more time to join the consensus”.”To Europe, some signal must be launched. We give 20 billion to the Eu, and we take only 12 – added Renzi – is it possible that you take away our money, and those Countries not complying with the agreements, they pull up the walls. They are crazy. It is a right battle and we go forward on this road”.

Salvini: “Renzi is a liar”

And the announcement of the veto of the Italian Brussels comes the replica controversy of Matteo Salvini: “Renzi is a liar – says in a note to the secretary of the Northern League – the threat of veto to Europe are only his umpteenth joke. Italy in the Council has voted in favour 148 times on 148. Never one abstention, to never a no: Renzi has always said yes to Europe on everything: banks, taxes, immigration, Turkey”. “It seems to me a ballot initiative, the usual pantomime, – so has commented on instead of the 5-Star and vice president of the Chamber, Luigi Di Maio – Renzi pretends to quarrel with the Eu and then signed everything. Until December 4, we will see him against the Eu then it will resume to do to treat Italy as a colony”.
