Economy Minister Giancarlo Giorgetti
on Wednesday expressed reservations about the Rearm Europe plan
European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen announced
this week to mobilize up to 800 billion euros to boost the EU's
defence capabilities.
"One thing is European defence and security, which implies a
well thought-out programme of investment in military
infrastructure that makes sense, and not done in a rush without
logic," Giorgetti said via video link to an economic conference
organized by his League party in the Lower House.
"You don't go to the supermarket to buy a drone or a supersonic
missile, you need multi-year investments".
