Italy gives more than it receives in Europe says Renzi

'One of causes of worsening debt'

(ANSA) - Rome, March 19 - Italy gives more to the European Union than it receives, Premier Matteo Renzi said Wednesday.

One of the causes of Italy's worsening debt-to-GDP ratio, he said, was its big contribution to the EU's euro bailout fund.

Italy's debt-to-GDP ratio of 133% is the second-biggest in the eurozone after Greece's.
