We're keeping EU flag, but Europe must do its job - Renzi

(ANSA) - Rome, November 16 - Premier Matteo Renzi on Wednesday said Italy would keep flying the European Union flag but added that the bloc must do its part and promote growth and investment. "We are conducting a battle in Europe," Renzi said as he visited a work site for the Agrigento-Caltanissetta state highway in Sicily. "The flag of Europe is here with us and we keep it by our side, but Europe must do its job, which is to promote growth, not just austerity, and to invest in the future, not just in bureaucracy".
