Italian Economy Minister Pier
Carlo Padoan has said he is worried about the pledges being made
by parties currently in opposition ahead of the March 4 general
election, saying many would see the achievements of the
centre-left-led governments of the last few years reversed.
"I see with concern that there is a proliferation of promises
in the election campaign to dismantle the work that has been
done," Padoan told German business newspaper Handelsblatt.
"Whoever takes the responsibility of government in the coming
months should put first implementation of the reforms and
structural changes that have been launched in this parliamentary
term.
"We have sown a seed that will bear fruit over time, if
tended well".
