European Commission President Jean-Claude Jucnker has "sent the spread crazy" by likening Italy to Greece and "could have spared us the comparison", Deputy Premier and Interior Minister Matteo Salvini, leader of the anti-migrant Euroskeptic League party, said Tuesday.
"The European Commission President Jucker, by equating Italy
with Greece, sends the spread crazy.
He could have spared us
that," Salvini said at a meeting of Naples' public order and
security committee.
"He should drink two glasses of water before opening his
mouth, and stop spreading non-existent threats.
"Or we'll ask him for damages".
