Comments by Italian deputy prime minister, Matteo Salvini
- Believes European Commission will be more friendly towards Italy now
- Reiterates that Lega is committed to government contract with Five Star
- Says that key issue for Italians is cutting taxes
Salvini is trying to flex his victory in the elections. It's enough to convince the world that the sands of time are changing in Europe but as for any immediate consequences, the results don't really change anything. As mentioned here, it has more domestic/national implications rather than major changes to the EU as a whole.
