Mideast war a 'big problem' for EU competitiveness: Former Italian prime minister Enrico Letta
We speak to an influential voice on European reform, former Italian prime minister Enrico Letta, author of a landmark report on the future of the Single Market, presented in April 2024. Two years on, he says many of its recommendations remain unimplemented, warning that continued fragmentation of the Single Market – and, by extension, the energy market – is contributing to higher costs for the EU amid the war in the Middle East. We also ask him about the EU’s plans for a digital single currency, alongside a report on the issue from our correspondent Alix Le Bourdon.
