Trieste, 8 Apr. (LaPresse)-"The EU is suffocating our productive fabric with tens of thousands of taxes, constraints, rules, directives and regulations that are out of touch with the real world, at a time when Washington and Beijing can sign a document and free up billions and cut laws; the European Union is suffocating our businesses with absurd rules and regulations, so we are not against the European Union, but we ask the European Union to eliminate all the bureaucratic burden, which is a problem for the entrepreneurs who are at Vinitaly today, for the entrepreneurs who are at the Salone del Mobile today and for those who want to innovate in Trieste. While the United States and China are cutting back on bureaucracy, the European Union is filling us with bureaucracy and regulations, we're not going to win anywhere’. So said the Minister of Infrastructure and Transport, Matteo Salvini, on the sidelines of the presentation to journalists in Trieste of the Innovation Hub at the Generali Convention Centre.
