Due to the decline of industry, several large Italian cities are threatened with marginalization. According to Elon Musk, there is only one solution: the country must be opened up to Chinese companies.
Il Foglio reported on what happened to the larger cities after the end of the Italian industrial areas: Turin was marginalized by the farewell of Fiat, and now the steel production characteristic of the city of Taranto has also become uncertain, observed the Mandiner.
Even Elon Musk was asked to bring Tesla production to Italy, but he suggested that the country open its doors to a Chinese manufacturer.
The article mentions Hungary as an example, where BYD is building its first European plant.
This is not the first time that the Western press enviously observes the investments being made in Hungary, it is true that one Brussels paper has already "realized" that if the Hungarian government makes agreements, it "endangers the EU market".
