Italy Is Ready To Go Its Own Way After Massive Breakdown With EU Leaders Over Bailout Scheme

So, Italy is so miffed at the EU that it has put a full page ad in the German newspaper, Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung, asking for help with its dire plight while it seems giving the Netherlands a roasting, reports the Telegraph.

But further, Italy basically says the whole EU project could be over when it says in the ad: "Today the EU does not have the means to respond to the crisis in a united front. If it does not prove that it exists, it will cease to exist."

And this all revolves around the inability of the EU27 to cohesively deal with the current global health crisis.
