Italy's Di Maio says government is considering increasing deficit to fund a credible plan for growth

Comments by Italy's deputy prime minister and Five-Star leader Luigi Di Maio

  • Reiterates that government's priority is to make life better for Italians
  • Not the government's priority to reassure markets

In other words, he's saying that they want to increase the deficit beyond Tria's 1.5% to 1.8% in order to fit his plans of lower taxes, pension reforms, and citizens' income. Tick tock, tick tock.
