«It's time for Europe of families», said Renzi

- Elverdinge (Belgium), 26th of June 2014 - It's time to relaunch growth and employment. So let's stop austerity and help citizens. That was Italian prime minister Matteo Renzi's message launched during the meeting of the Party of European Socialists ahead the European Council meeting «Italy neither wants to get anything in competition with the other partners, nor wants to get anything different compared to the others», he said. «The point is to listent to the very clear message come from the European elections, which is a message that obliges to reflect, understanding that if we care about Europe we must act in favour of growth and to tackle unemployment». Renzi reiterated that «there's any Italian position in opposition to that one of the other countries». On the contrary «there's a position, I believe within the European Socialists, in favour of growth and in favour of Europe of families rather than Europe of bureaucracy». (Emanuele Bonini)
