Italy should start printing fresh euros and Germany should leave the currency union, former Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi said Friday, MF-Dow Jones reported.
“Here’s my crazy idea; Let’s start printing euros ourselves,” Mr Berlusconi told an assembly of his center-right People of Liberty party’s parliamentary deputies.
“Germany should leave the euro if it doesn’t agree with the European Central Bank serving as a lender of last resort,” he added, MF-Dow Jones said.
If the ECB doesn’t take on that role, Germany’s role in Europe should be reviewed, he said.
