Premier Matteo Renzi hit back
Friday after Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban said he was
irritable because of Italy's migrant and budget problems.
"Orban has an imprecise vision of Italy," Renzi told Radio
Radicale, reiterating that Italy was ready to veto the new EU
budget if countries like Hungary keep refusing to do their bit
to help with the asylum-seeker crisis.
"In other words, it's not true that the deficit is
increasing, it is not true that Italy is in difficulty and it's
not true we are irritable.
"Either Europe acknowledges the documents that Europe
itself signed and takes charge of the migrants or there will be
a wonderful new development - Italy will veto any budget that
does not contemplate equal obligations and equal rights".
