The blast furnaces are turned off and Ilva is consumed

On the same topic:

Despite the narrative of Minister Urso , who until a week ago boasted of having saved Ilva by expropriating it from ArcelorMittal , the situation has worsened, so much so that Undersecretary Mantovano, opening the table with the metalworkers at Palazzo Chigi, admitted that yesterday's meeting was the most difficult since the beginning of government. The entire Ursian fairy tale disintegrated at the first accident that occurred in the factory, which led to the seizure without the right to use of one of the two blast furnaces in operation . An entirely predictable accident, given the obsolescence of the plants. The minister has unloaded his failure on the Taranto prosecutor's office (never innocent), but the sale staged by Urso has never been concrete. With the tender concluded and won by Baku Steel, neither the economic offer nor the industrial plan are known .

Nor can we believe that those who participated in a tender for the acquisition of a factory knowing that it has been under seizure for over 10 years - and since then in the hands of magistrates, local authorities and the government that expropriated it from the last buyers who had invested 4 billion - are afraid of yet another seizure. Now 7 billion are needed, while the state has already burned another 400 million in bridging loans . Now everyone is asking for nationalization: unions, Salvini and Emiliano (who wants to include Acquedotto Pugliese in the board of directors). Yesterday's meeting was interrupted and will start again on Monday, but from Palazzo Chigi it will move to the Ministry of Labor: on the table are an increase in extraordinary redundancy payments, pension slides, and special laws for social safety nets. It will end like this.
