European Economic Affairs
Commissioner Pierre Moscovici on Wednesday hailed the agreement
Brussels reached with Rome over Italy's budget for 2019 as "a
victory of political dialogue".
He said the Commission had preferred to adopt the path of
negotiation rather than "confrontation".
He said that under the agreed solution, Italy's structural
deficit will be no worse than previously, compared to a
deterioration of 0.8% under the government's initial budget
plan.
