TRANSLATION:

(00'41- 00'53): "Therefore, the reduction of VAT on energy products would mean between now and the end of the year an increase in public expenditure of 7 billion euros; this will be compensated by the elimination of a tax exemption for shipowners for 1.2 billion and a reduction of the contribution to the budget of the European Union of 2 billion euros".

(00'53- 01'07): "The alliance that I lead is today the only credible, responsible alliance, capable of starting the recovery of the country, and of doing so while respecting the institutions, the individual freedoms and, of course, the unity of the nation".
