Raffaele Fitto, co-president of the Ecr-FdI group in the European Parliament
“The interventions of the Vice President of the European Commission, Valdis Dombrowskis and the Commissioner for Economic and Monetary Affairs, Paolo Gentiloni, confirm that economic growth is losing its momentum and a climate of uncertainty is spreading more and more among citizens and businesses. Geopolitical tensions, the increase in the cost of energy and raw materials, the rise in inflation, the difficulties in supply chains, are among the main factors which, as the representatives of the Commission themselves have acknowledged, risk not being temporary, but they are contributing to a worsening of economic data with respect to which citizens and businesses are asking for immediate responses ”. Thus in a note the co-chairman of the Ecr-FdI group in the European Parliament, Raffaele Fitto.
“Even knowing that inside the EU Commission there are different positions, we reiterate that it is essential to continue to support our economies and to foresee, pending the reform of the economic governance rules, further tools to address the main critical issues in the coming months. Reintroducing restrictive fiscal rules could jeopardize the efforts made so far, the effects of Recovery and Resilience Plansfurther undermine the foundations of our economies and increase the imbalances and divergences between the different Member States. “
