(ANSA) - ROME, JULY 07 - "The proposal of the Recovery Fund is a crucial step in the direction of solidarity. It is not a question of going back to what we were before, but of relaunching Europe. Germany is alongside Italy on these issues. We can only get out of the crisis together," said the German ambassador in Rome, Viktor Elbling, in a meeting organized by FEBAF to present the priorities of the current presidency of the European Union.
