Il NYT commenta l'incontro Merkel-Monti di ieri: In Italy last month, Mr. Monti pushed through Parliament a $40 billion austerity package, which included tax increases and an overhaul of the pension system. But the changes have done little to assuage the doubts of borrowers, who continue to demand a significant premium for Italian bonds over what Germany must pay. Mr. Monti’s government of unelected technocrats is trying to pull the country back from its deep indebtedness by trimming a bloated public sector, fighting corruption and reducing tax evasion, a task that puts it in a precarious position without a base of party support to fall back on.
Tagliare i costi del settore pubblico, lotta all'evasione e alla corruzione. Un bel messaggio all'estero.
E Phastidio.it (via Fuggetta): Che scarso quel Monti!
