Juncker says Italy 'can't complain'

(ANSA) - Brussels, December 11 - European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker said Thursday Italy "can't complain" about recent remarks he made in an interview with Avvenire newspaper about possible "unpleasant consequences" for France and Italy. "If there is someone who can't complain it's Italy," Juncker said. The Commission dealt with France and Italy in a "political and non-bureaucratic way", he added. The EU Stability and Growth Pact "has never been applied in a more flexible way," he said.
