Premier Paolo Gentiloni on
Thursday said relations with the European Commission were
particularly important now, with Italy facing political
uncertainty after an inconclusive general election earlier this
month.
"Precisely in such a particular phase of Italian affairs, in
these weeks of transition, it is important to maintain a
relationship with the European Commission," Gentiloni said on
his way into an EU summit in Brussels.
Gentiloni said this was why he was now going to see European
Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker.
Gentiloni and Juncker are set to have bilateral talks on the
sidelines of the summit.
