(ANSA) - Rome, November 30 - Economy Minister Pier Carlo
Padoan said Monday Italy's "high" public debt would start
falling in 2016 but stressed "it would be useful if inflation
were a little higher. We are counting on the ECB, which is
insisting on a heterodox monetary policy". The Italian consumer
price index fell 0.4% between October and November.
Higher inflation better for debt
'Counting on ECB' says economy minister
