The Italian government is confident that the European Union won’t open a disciplinary procedure over its budget after the ruling coalition agreed to revise it, an economy undersecretary said on Monday, Trend reports referring to Reuters.
“We are optimistic,” Massimo Garavaglia told state-owned radio RAI.
Italy’s coalition government has agreed on the “numbers and contents” of the budget it will propose to Brussels in a bid to avoid disciplinary action over its plans to hike deficit spending next year, a League party spokeswoman said earlier on Monday.
