This was said by the vice president of the European Commission, Raffaele Fitto, intervening in Reggio Calabria to a meeting on the theme “A bridge over Europe”. Fitto dialogue with the journalist of the Corriere della Sera Francesco Verdarami, scientific director of the “The gold of Calabria” association, who promoted the initiative, and with a group of young people. Fitto, European commissioner for agriculture, tourism, transport, fishing and blue economy, said that “precisely these sectors and these responsibilities can affect concretely in a very particular moment, both for the geopolitical conditions in which we live and on the need for Europe to recalibrate its presence in the world context. We are crossing a delicate phase. For this reason, a revision of the current programming of cohesion has been proposed As a commission, the budget of 2028/2034 presented “. Europe today is faced with great challenges and must be able to intervene concretely, however, trying to adapt the use of resources to new scenarios. And the example of the cohesion and review policy that we are discussing goes in this direction ».
