I believe that in Europe, we have a collective leadership.
The two greatest priorities for my government are tackling tax evasion and corruption.
My aspiration is not to be loved. It is that my government be respected and credible.
If governments let themselves be fully bound by the decisions of their parliaments without protecting their own freedom to act, a breakup of Europe would be a more probable outcome than deeper integration.
I hope that my government can help change Italian mentality.
I have the most profound respect for the Department of Justice and the FTC. We in Europe are a younger and I would say junior institution to the historical antitrust experience of the US.
