The coalition meeting in Italy overnight appeared to have gone well. Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte’s office said that he will work with the two deputy Prime Ministers, League leader Matteo Salvini and 5-Star Movement head Luigi Di Maio, and Economy Minister Giovanni Tria to draw up a strategy to avoid EU’s Excessive Deficit Procedure.
Salvini said “All’s well, it was a good meeting. Our shared goal is to avoid the infringement while safeguarding economic growth, employment, as well as tax cuts.”
Di Maio said “It went well because we have set some goals: cutting taxes, approving the law on minimum wage and getting good results for Italians.”
