“We are calling for ‘good public debt’—that is, debt that enables the investment and growth the EU needs, as well as quality jobs, especially in the most disadvantaged areas. Today’s approval by the Commission of the new strategy for islands and coastal communities is a positive step. These are strategies from which Italy can benefit, particularly for Sardinia and Sicily.” This was stated by Giuseppe Lupo, MEP for the Democratic Party, on the sidelines of the event organized by Legacoop and hosted by the Emilia-Romagna Region’s Delegation to the EU, titled “Prospects for the EU Budget between Competitiveness and Social Cohesion (MFF 2028–2034).”
