"In this period I had the impression of having a European commissioner playing with the shirt of another national team. Rather than making suggestions, he raised complaints and criticisms." This was stated by the Minister of Infrastructure, Matteo Salvini, speaking in Rome at an Acea conference. The only Italian representative in the EU executive is that of economic and monetary affairs Paolo Gentiloni
For Salvini "it is essential to have European commissioners who defend the interest of the entire community and the country". According to the leader of the League "the European vote next June will be decisive for the balances that I hope will be new in Parliament and the Commission. On the issues of housing, work, cars, mobility, security, immigration, the next European legislature will be the one for which you live or survive. I think of crazy issues such as the plastic tax, made against Italian industry, which is one of the greenest. Instead of helping you, they tax you." "I hope that Timmermans wins the elections in the Netherlands and goes to do damage only there and not in all of Europe," the minister added.
