Electric cars a load of nonsense
imposed by Brussels, Transport Minister Matteo Salvini said
Tuesday.
Salvini, who is also deputy premier, told the Expo Ferroviaria
railway show that "trains and railways bring sustainability and
a real ecological transition, not the nonsense of electric cars
for everyone and at all costs that are just an enormous gift for
China".
He added: "I thank all those who are working in the rail sphere
and who are the real supporters of the ecological transition,
without leaving jobless thousands of workers which instead the
crazy choices of Europe in the car sector risk leaving at home".
In other remarks, Salvini insisted that the funding for the
world's longest suspension bridge linking Sicily and mainland
Italy across the Messina Strait would be in the 2024 budget.
