Meloni responds to Mattarella on the deficit and the school: 'We will move forward according to the roadmap'

The 2025 deficit still above 3%? «I am sorry for the failure to exit the EU procedure early, but «we will move forward according to what was the roadmap». Sergio Mattarella's words on school? "The President of the Republic says he must overcome ghettos, not create ghettos" and the Government's desire to create "more balanced classes" goes in this direction. Giorgia Meloni chooses Bruno Vespa's living room on Rai 1, first on Cinque Minuti and then on Porta a Porta, to comment on the very current events.

Doubts about Istat

Meloni also uses the word "regret" for the Istat data on the deficit used hotly by the Minister of Economy Giancarlo Giorgetti. «I am sorry - says the prime minister - because on the same day Istat also says that it is revising the Italian growth estimates for 2024. There was a 30% error, which happened every year after which they were revised upwards. I don't know if Istat underestimates Italians or the Government but it is happening. I would be sorry if this happened even in two years and we were to discover that we were below 3% and the estimates were too conservative."

School Decree, "common sense" rules

On the criticism of the School decree which should arrive in the Council of Ministers on Thursday, the Prime Minister contests the interpretation of the words of the Head of State offered in her opinion by those who only aim to "criticize the Government's initiative". The objective of avoiding ghettos is, for the Prime Minister, exactly what the Executive pursues. «The ghetto is clearly much simpler if you take a foreign child who doesn't speak our language and put him in a class where the majority of students don't speak our language. This is the ghetto. While creating a more equal distribution of classes, more balanced classes, serves precisely to prevent a ghetto." The President of the Republic «talks about overcoming incommunicability and what is the basis for overcoming incommunicability? The language. So much so that we are talking about a better distribution of foreign kids who don't speak our language."
