Probleme grave în sudul Italiei, unde protestele împotriva „carovita” golesc magazinele și benzinăriile

Protests against high inflation are escalating in southern Italy, causing roadblocks by truck drivers that disrupt supply chains and fuel availability at airports. ENAV reported that airports in Crotone and Reggio Calabria are out of fuel due to these strikes. The protests, driven by soaring fuel prices and high road taxes, have led to shortages in regions like Puglia and Calabria. Truckers demand immediate tax relief and government commitments, while the government faces increasing pressure. Despite some concessions, protests are set to continue until further discussions occur. The rising cost of living, termed 'carovita', has become a national concern, with inflation at 4.2% in September.
