(Finance) – The parties seem willing to bury the hatchet on dear energy and does not stop the transversal pressing on Draghi to “act immediately on bills”. Matteo Salvini returns to solicit an intervention on the energy node.
“We fight over everything, but on electricity and gas bills we immediately open Parliament and put a ceiling on increases” and “just copy Macron’s France”, because “this is another war and the workers risk dying with the companies closed”, said the secretary of the League during an electoral meeting in Cammarata, in the Agrigento area, recalling that “this is the League’s proposal “.
‘An Italian and European intervention to block bills and stop the ongoing speculation on energy produced from renewables is unthinkable. I discussed it this morning at the Arzignano leather industrial district in Veneto. We are ready to support the government’s intervention. “Thus the secretary of the Democratic Party, Enrico Letta on Twitter. The Pd meanwhile, through the presidents of senators and deputies Simona Malpezzi and Debora Serracchiani, he attacks “the companies that are refusing to pay the extra-profit tax ‘because ‘they jeopardize the economic and social stability of the country’. For this reason, he says, the government must intervene “as soon as possible with all the tools available to recover the amount owed by the companies”.
A theme particularly felt also by industrial than throwing the‘energy alarm calculate extra costs of 40 billion euros. It was discussed during an extraordinary meeting between the presidents Annalisa Sassi (Confindustria Emilia-Romagna), Francesco Buzzella (Confindustria Lombardia), Marco Gay (Confindustria Piemonte), Enrico Carraro (Confindustria Veneto) and the Economic Development Councilors Vincenzo Colla (Emilia -Romagna), Guido Guidesi (Lombardy), Andrea Tronzano (Piedmont) and Roberto Marcato (Veneto).
Expensive energy, in the absence of those price containment measures requested by companies for months, “it is paralyzing the Italian industrial system with the strong risk of deindustrialising the country and endangering national security and social stability”.
In line with the appeal of the president of Confindustria, Carlo Bonomi, it was emphasized that the situation is of an extraordinary and urgent nature, because “it is impossible to maintain production with such a cost differential compared to our competitors’ other countries (EU and non-EU), which affects not only direct exporting companies , but also the entire production chain, with a heavily negative effect especially on small and medium-sized enterprises “.
