MILAN—Italy’s Treasury Minister said on June 13 he did not see a recession on the horizon but acknowledged there could be a period of stagnation.
The Italian economy has been slowing for the last year and gross domestic product declined by 0.1 percent in the third quarter, the weakest result since 2014.
