the italian government putting up a fight. what did you leaders agree in eu leaders agree in the end? >> a very contentious night. the focus point was the italian government. the italian prime minister said he would veto the entire summit if they didn't get a comprehensive migration deal. this is what we have. european leaders have agreed to , when holding centers migrants get to europe, they will be screened and that it -- vetting and authorities will have to determine whether they qualify for asylum. if not, they will be sent back to their countries of origin. a lot of countries argued some cannot stay ints europe. secondly, there is this point, distribution quotas are going to have to be shared more equally if the country feels it is overwhelmed. this was key for the italians to get. they have it on the document. the issue is that we don't know in practical terms how this comes into effect. bids of this agreement are going to be voluntary. we don't know which countries are doing what. this is a voluntary deal. we are not su

all of a sudden putting more money in the pockets of italians in the form of higher public spending, and so on, and lower corporation tax, and encouraging individuals in what they spend and encouraging businesses to set up, i think this has the potential for a winner. their politicians in both parties of this coalition that don't have any political experience. this could be a trial ground for populist movement and governments around europe. help patient will financial markets be with italy? because of the government of servicing its huge debt is going up by the day —— the cost. the cost of borrowing for the italian government will remain stable, provided they don't try to leave the eurozone automatic massive relief on debt. if they stick to domestic politics such as tax reform and in relation to reinvigorating the economy, i think that will actually provide the italian economy sta ble actually provide the italian economy stable ground and the financial market will give it the benefit of the doubt. it is really only be possibility of leaving the euro which will rock investor confidenc
