Germany's Ambassador to Italy
Viktor Elbling has told ANSA that Berlin does not consider Rome
to be a risk factor for the European Union.
"The rules are valid for everyone and they are there to be
respected by everyone," Elbling said when asked about the
Italian government's upcoming budget law and the possibility the
EU rules could be breached.
"But when we look towards Italy from Germany, we don't see a
country that is a danger for Europe.
"It is clear that a country like Italy needs economic
growth".
