Italian economist and MEP Irene Tinagli EU

Talking Europe interviews Irene Tinagli, who chairs the European Parliament’s Committee on Economic and Monetary Affairs, and is a prominent member of Italy’s Democratic Party (PD). She calls for the completion of the EU’s Banking Union to protect people’s deposits, and for an EU budget that is up to the challenges the bloc faces today. We also touch on the post-Covid national Recovery and Resilience Plans, especially Italy’s plan, and on the Italian government’s decision to declare a state of emergency as a significant influx of migrants arrives on Italian shores.
