Giorgia Meloni: 'I support the bill, I hope it will be approved as soon as possible' Sergio Mattarella: 'The future is measured by the ability to respond to the new generations' Eugenia Roccella: The trend towards an Italian birth rate decline is serious. Italy intends to bring the topic of demography to the European Commission and the new European Parliament as a priority for the next five years.
The decline in women of childbearing age is now too pronounced for birth rate measures to have the same effect they would have had when the number of young women was still significant, the minister says. "No one can convince me that it is an act of love to consider children as an over-the-counter product in a supermarket," says Prime Minister Meloni. "The rented womb is an inhuman practice and I support a bill so that it becomes a universal crime," says the prime minister. "It's about implementing constitutional provisions", adds the president.
