Di Maio reassures the Month: “The allies do not cause and the accident will be avoided”

“I believe that nobody hopes in the parliamentary incident and I believe, I hope, that it does not happen” and “the divisions that I see in the majority are not of communitarian policy, but economic”. In an interview with the Republic, Chancellor Luigi Di Maio says that the ESM reform “I don’t like either and in fact I think it is not necessary to use the pre-reform, or the post-reform, or the health policy”, but “we are building a mountain out of nothing” because the fact is that “the figures in Parliament to access this tool have never been there”, so “I respect everyone’s opinions, but we must avoid igniting the political debate”.

Regarding the content of the Month, Di Maio reiterates that “the Month is worth 300 million, not 37 billion” and “if I believe that we have been arguing for 300 million euros for a year, when we have spent 100 billion in 10 months, it worries me. .. “While” I think that by now the EU has given an answer worthy of its name: in Italy there were those who bet on default, due to the failure of the von der Leyen commission that was born thanks to the decisive votes of the M5S in the European Parliament, let’s not forget it. It turned out the other way around: not only did we manage to successfully negotiate an instrument like Recovery, but we also won the most conspicuous part “.

On those who oppose the Month, Di Maio analyzes: “This is not a gap between populists and pro-Europeans, it is a much deeper debate, it cannot be settled in this way. And it has its roots in the tragic experience of the Hellenic crisis, in the evidence that no other EU country has requested the ESM to date, in the need for all member states to identify a more appropriate instrument such as the Fund. Recovery ”.

Di Maio rejects the hypothesis put forward by undersecretary Alessio Villarosa, who asks the members of Rousseau to decide. “I wish it was clear once more. On Wednesday in the classroom a resolution will be voted on the Prime Minister’s statements, which we fully support and already support twice by our members with plebiscite votes for this government. Do we want to put Giuseppe Conte to a vote of the members 24 hours after the most important European summit in recent years? ”.

That is why “the 9th Count will reach the courtroom, the majority will have to vote compactly and responsibly” and “to lead a country, the government must demonstrate a certain strength, which is measured in the promotion of projects and perspectives shared by the It is the moment to show that this force is useful to give stability to the country “, hopes the Chancellor.
