Matteo Salvini, the head of the
Euroskeptic League party, said Tuesday that "the euros was, and
remains, a mistaken experiment that has damaged jobs and the
Italian economy".
"We haven't changed our mind," he added at the Lower House
presentation of League candidate Umberto Bagnai, the author of a
book entitled "Il tramonto dell'Euro" - the dusk of the euro.
"We are preparing to defend the national interest, as we
signed up to do in the centre-right programme, with the
(Italian) Constitution taking prevalence over EU law".
The League is part of the centre-right coalition that is
favourite to come first in the March 4 general election.
