Newsdeck: EU’s Brexit Patience With U.K. Won’t Last Forever, Juncker Says By Bloomberg
“We have had a great deal of patience with our British friends, but patience can also run out, it comes to an end,” the European Commission president told Italy’s RAI television in an interview Sunday, on the eve of a visit to Rome.
Asked whether a second Brexit referendum is possible, Juncker replied: “It is something which concerns the British exclusively. It is not up to us to give lessons to the British on the path they intend to follow — they must decide what instruments they will use to reach the end of this process.” “Italy must rediscover the instruments which will allow it to relaunch its economy, but to say Italy is a risk is an exaggeration even though the public debt level is dangerously high,” Juncker said. “The Italian government tries to take measures which allow Italy to restart growth. I want to believe it but I am not sure.”
