The European Commission's green light
for the fifth tranche of Italy's National Recovery and
Resilience Plan (NRRP) refutes those who were banking on the
Italian government's purported failure to deliver on the plan,
Premier Giorgia Meloni said after the tranche's approval
Tuesday.
"I am very happy to announce that the European Commission today
approved the payment of the fifth instalment of the NRRP,"
Meloni said in a video message, stressing that "it is excellent
news for Italy, it is excellent news for the citizens.
"It is news that once again disproves those who had bet on the
failure of this government, those who hoped in their hearts that
Italy could lose Europe's money to perhaps gain an electoral
advantage.
"But it did not happen like that. And with the work of these
months we have shown that all those predictions were wrong. "We
have shown this by doing what we do best, which is to study the
dossiers, work, and bring home the concrete results".
