The forecasts, for Italy, look, in 2021 to a GDP growth of 6% and in 2022 to 4.4%, in fifth place among the G20 countries, with a double-digit increase in industrial production – he continues the president of the Republic-. The strong political will, which was at the origin of the choices proposed by the European Commission and supported by the approval of the European Parliament, made it possible to overcome the different sensitivities present in the Union and to create an unprecedented operational dimension that constitutes a real and its own turning point “.
