Redazione Ansa

(ANSA) - Rome, July 7 - Premier Matteo Renzi said Tuesday on his way in to a eurozone summit on the Greek debt crisis that he is "more worried about the EU than about the fate of a single country".
    "I'm not all that worried about a technical solution on Greece, which I think can be found prettily easily," the premier said. "I'm a little more concerned about finding a political situation for Europe, which right now isn't working".
    Renzi went on to reiterate his call for "more growth, more future, more innovation".

He added that "with a bit of good will an accord (on Greece) can be found...probably not today but in the next few hours".

"I believe Greek leaders are interested in staying in the euro, but the rules must be followed,"Renzi said. "They can be interpreted flexibly, but they must be followed."

The Italian premier went on to say that "I understand there's an ongoing Truman Show in the media that is only talking about Greece, but we need a...debate on the future of Europe".
