Giorgia Meloni's speech at the CISL Congress: "A thousand days of government, but it feels like more."

In her lengthy speech at the CISL National Congress in Rome, Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni emphasized, among other things, that "the macroeconomic data, even in an impossible context, paint an encouraging picture." "The Italian economy," the Prime Minister added, "has performed overall positively in recent years, with growth of 0.7 percent in 2024, and an increase of 0.3 percent in the first quarter of this year. Employment continues to show good numbers , with the highest employment rate ever. Permanent contracts are growing , permanent contracts are growing, and precarious contracts are decreasing. This is the data I consider more important than any other, because I have always believed that a nation's true wealth lies in work, and that wealth has no value to a society if it doesn't also translate into quality jobs."

In other passages of the speech, Meloni recalled that her executive, which today celebrates its thousandth day , has created almost a thousand jobs a day , reaching the significant figure of over one million stable, permanent jobs .
