President Sergio Mattarella on
Thursday urged authorities to safeguard savings looking to the
EU and the markets.
He also said the economy should not be run according to
"domestic horizons".
Mattarella also said it was risky to make short-term
calculations.
He said "we can grow, we must inspire confidence."
Mattarella also said "the country's sustainable development
is closely linked to its unity".
He said "Italy will become stronger if it succeeds in
reducing the gaps existing between North and South, between
cities and internal areas, between areas equipped with modern
and efficient infrastructure and structurally more disadvantaged
areas".
Mattarella made his remarks to the new Knights of Labour,
business people rewarded for their services to the economy.
He added that work was a priority, and the basis of national
unity.
