On behalf of AGSPP, on the revision of the Maastricht and Lisbon Treaties 

The petitioner objects to the economic and monetary policy provisions of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union and the objective of ‘a highly competitive social market economy’ as stipulated in the Treaty on European Union, arguing that they run counter to the fundamental principles and rights enshrined in the Italian Constitution. He accordingly takes the view that a political European Union needs to take shape before a financial union and calls the EU treaties to be revised accordingly.
