March 26, 2021 The Minister of Economic Development, Giancarlo Giorgetti, at the end of the meeting with the unions on the former Ilva, stressed that "the 400 million charged to Invitalia" will arrive "if the necessary reassurances reach the Mef in the coming weeks, before of the sentence expected for mid-May, underlining that "the goal is to make the company work, nothing else". In this perspective, he added, "the industrial plan also needs updating.

For our part - he concluded - we intend to be a particular interlocutor, we are investigating the dossier because there are aspects that are not very clear ". In general, on the ex Ilva crisis, as well as on other dossiers" it seems to me - added the minister - that there is on the part of Europe a different approach.

I am also referring to the automotive sector: I wonder what is the point of investing billions of euros and then buying buses in China.

I say that we need to change strategy ". 



Fiom-Cgil:" The 400 million in the coming weeks "


" In a few weeks the entry of Invitalia will be completed with the 400 million euro which allows the presence on the board of directors of 3 indicated by Invitalia ". The general secretary of Fiom Cgil, Francesca Re David, said this on Ilva-ArcelorMittal, after today's confrontation at the Mise with ministers Giancarlo Giorgetti and Andrea Orlando. In reference to the Government, Re David said that" they are studying the industrial plan that has some aspects does not fully convince, before a strong investment through the resources of the Recovery Found.

We note - continued King David - that this happens every time a minister changes.

It is the fourth minister who has changed since we made the agreement and creates concern and uncertainty. "" This also applies to Piombino - the number 1 Fiom Cgil noted - where there is the interest of the State to intervene but they must understand the quality that the private individual who is on Piombino puts into it and therefore the commitments but also the uncertainties remain ".



Fim:" With excuse 400 million, the company does not move anything "


" The lack of the 400 million was the excuse for ArcelorMittal do not even do the things he had proposed ". The national secretary Fim Cisl, Valerio D'Alò said today, on the sidelines of the meeting at the Mise." The workers remain layoffs and Taranto awaits the environmentalization works "he said. added D'Alò. "At the Erw pipe factory they did not let the maintenance workers in to get it started again, everything is suspended, there is no maintenance, the plants do not restart - said D'Alò -.

This is a dog that bites its own tail.

We arrive at the paradox of having cast iron and not starting the steel mills to work it.

Minister Giorgetti - he concluded - must give a change of pace to a dispute that is waiting for a solution. " 



Uil:" Witnessed a blame game between ministries "


" In today's meeting with ministers Giorgetti and Orlando we again witnessed one blame it on, this time even more striking because it takes place between two important ministries such as the Mise and the Ministry of Economy ". This is what Uilm general secretary, Rocco Palombella, and Uilm national secretary, Guglielmo Gambardella, say, after the meeting this morning . "Giorgetti's response on the State's entry into the capital of ArcelorMittal is not only not certain - say the two Uilm exponents - but is bound to the opinion of the Mef and to the possible modification of the contract concluded on 10 December precisely between Ami and Invitalia ". Uilm says that" we expected a clear stance after 9 years from the start of the dispute, but we continue to waste time with the serious risk that the situation will become

i irreparable ".



"It almost seems that we want to wait for the judgment of the Council of State, expected on May 13, in order not to take on the necessary responsibilities", argue Palombella and Gambardella, head of the steel sector for the national Uilm "Even today we - they note - have continued to ask, without receiving clear answers: how do you want to proceed, what you want to do with the destiny of 20 thousand workers and entire communities and what are the concrete projects that you want to put in place ".

"We cannot wait for the timing of politics - continue Palombella and Gambardella - there is a need for a quick and decisive intervention by the Government to manage the ecological transition and environmental remediation by indicating credible industrial plans, safeguarding employment levels and certain deadlines".
