00:00The context is complicated for everyone. What are the peculiarities of Italy within Europe?
00:11We are the country with the government, with the leader closest to Trump,
00:18so there will certainly be even more for Italy the temptation to look for a deal with Trump
00:25and it could be a deal of only our country to defend national interest.
00:29This could be, in the short term, a good for Italy,
00:32but in the medium term it could be a difficulty for Europe and therefore for Italy in Europe.
00:36And then there is the moment when we talk about defense.
00:39We are among the countries with the most investments and the most indebted.
00:46If, as it seems, the European project will be a project of strengthening defense in debt,
00:52for us there is a problem, a problem certainly more serious than for other countries,
00:56because, as Minister Giorgetti also mentioned, at a certain point of these new debts someone will ask us for an account.
01:02So in both issues, defense as taxes, Italy risks to isolate itself for legitimate and logical reasons,
01:10but the risk of isolation in the next months and in the next periods is stronger than for other countries.
