About the Speech:

Support for the EU in Italy is amongst the lowest of any EU Member State and Eurosceptic political movements have steadily gained popularity across the country. In his address to the IIEA, Ettore Greco discussed these trends by outlining Italy’s policy priorities and interests – with particular focus on economic and migration policy, the evolution of public sentiment towards the EU, and the potential impact of next year’s parliamentary elections on Italy’s EU policies.
