Italia susţine că UE trebuie să ţină cont de inflaţie când evaluează abaterile de la buget

Italian Economy Minister Giancarlo Giorgetti emphasized the need for the EU to consider rising inflation when assessing budgetary deviations. He plans to discuss greater fiscal flexibility at the upcoming Eurogroup meeting. Italy's inflation rate has increased significantly, impacting public sentiment ahead of next year's elections. Giorgetti highlighted that high energy costs could hinder economic growth, and the government aims to secure additional budgetary leeway from the EU. Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni also seeks to allocate funds to mitigate energy costs, leveraging the EU's safeguard clause to increase spending.
