European Central bank President
Mario Draghi said on the Italian political situation Thursday
that "the euro is irreversible, because it is strong, because
people want it and because it does no one any good to call it
into question".
He added that it was important "not to dramatize" political
events in individual countries and said the markets "did not
result in any contagion" after fears of the new Italian
government being Euroskeptic.
Draghi stressed the importance of political debate remaining
"within the limits of EU treaties" and that progress made by
countries should not be put at risk.
"It does not bring any benefit to call the euro into
question," Draghi said, "because it is irreversible".
He said this was valid for Italian Euroskeptic movements and
for the dialogue started in Germany by economist Clement Fuest..
