Paolo Becchi – Giuseppe Palma
Month or not Month? That is the question. Since the night of the elections on September 21, there was a media bombardment to activate the call Me “sanitary”, a barrage started from Gypsies followed by Renzi and the governor of the Bank of Italy. The M5 is reluctant, so much so that Conte has talked about ditching security decrees from Salvini and Quota100 and incardinate the Ius Soli, but so far he has not said anything to avoid creating friction with Movement, at a time of strong internal lacerations. But within the next month the knot will come to a head and, let’s face it, most don’t have the numbers. What is it about? The “sanitary” or “light” MES is a line of credit that has its origin, yes, in the Treaty that established the European Stability Mechanism in 2012, but polished by the agreement signed by the finance ministers of the euro zone in the meeting ofEurogroup May 8. Each country can access a credit line equivalent to 2% of GDP, which for us means around 37 billion euros at a very low rate of 0.11% per year. Money that must be used only for direct or indirect expenses related to the Covid-19 epidemic and that must be paid back in ten years.
Those who oppose point out three critical aspects above all: 1) To raise 37 billion, the State could resort to normal and usual financing in the markets through the placement of government bonds, which at this moment have very low interest rates. At the moment, Mes is not very convenient. 2) The document of the Eurogroup of May 8 establishes that, in exchange for the 37,000 million, the requesting country will be subjected to an “economic and fiscal surveillance” by the European institutions. 3) The same Eurogroup document provides for the clause “early work system “, that is, in practice the Month becomes a “privileged creditor“Compared to savers who buy government bonds on the market. Fair and acceptable objections, we have also talked about them several times in this newspaper. But here we try to make a different political reasoning. The bottom line is that 5Stelle may not. vote in Parliament for ideological and façade issues, or in any case for not voting compactly. If this happened, the united center-right could intervene, giving the will to vote for the “Health Month”, but under certain conditions: never more confinementn national and reestablish the rule of law, renouncing the power of ordinance and the protocols of the technical-scientific committee.
In other words: schools open without terror, college in presence, justice with regular course, cessation of smart-working especially in the public sector, cessation of the technical-scientific committee. In short, the return to normality. the Prime Minister he should take note of the majority change on such an important issue and resign. The 37 billion Month could be used, for example, to build intensive care units in the twenty Italian regions up to 100 thousand beds in intensive care across the country. Given this, also thanks to the pharmacological therapies that have been tested successfully from March to today, I said COVID-19 almost no one would die anymore. We repeat, ours is just a hypothesis to think about. Italians are exasperated, they are looking for stability, peace, tranquility, the time for adventures is over. From many sectors, Salvini is asked to be responsible, that is how it would be. As for the relationship with the EU, it should not be difficult to ask the institutions to eliminate “economic and fiscal surveillance”, according to the Eurogroup document of 8 May, to exclude, in black and white, the annual quota for the restitution of the ESM of Stability pact, when it is re-established in 2022. In this sense, on the contrary, the opposition could also ask the Government to present to the European Council the request for the abolition of the Stability Pact. This would be a critical attitude towards the Government and the EU, but constructive, and we believe that it will be highly appreciated by the majority of Italians for its concreteness.
