Outgoing Premier Paolo Gentiloni
warned the government that is set to replace his that it would
not take much to plunge Italy back into crisis.
"Getting back up a slippery slope for five long years, like
Italy has done, is not easy," Gentiloni commented as he said
goodbye to staff at the premier's office.
"Unfortunately, it doesn't take five years to go off the
road, but a few months, sometimes a few weeks.
"It is necessary to treat the open wounds, but to do so by
trying to move forward, maintaining quality, responsibility and
commitment in the government's work.
"I think that this is very important and it is the only
message that it is right to give the government that will
substitute the one I have presided over in the coming days".
