The government will take no lectures from the opposition on debt since it swelled by some 174 billion euros due to the Superbonus green home improvement scheme introduced by a previous government, Premier Giorgia Meloni told parliament at Premier’s Question Time Wednesday.
“I always encounter a certain contradiction in the accusations against this government,” she told the Senate.
“We are accused on the one hand of implementing austerity measures and on the other reprimanded for the rising debt-to-GDP ratio, but “the debt is growing only thanks to the Superbonus, €174 billion” which “we will finish paying in 2027 when our mandate ends.” Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni said this responding to a question from Stefano Patuanelli of the opposition 5-Star Movement, on initiatives to promote growth and industrial competitiveness.
