European Commissioner for
the Euro Valdis Dombrovskis said Monday Italy's budget
trajectory was wrong and before it was corrected thanks to talks
with the EU "the damage to the economy had already been done".
He said "we revised downwards the growth forecasts and it has
to be said that also previously we had said that the chosen
budget trajectory did not help confidence, financial stability,
led to the increase in rates, the fall in indicators on
confidence, and slowed growth".
He said "the government corrected this trajectory
considerably, but the damage had already been done".
