(Adnkronos) - Urso: “Economia del mare ed economia dello spazio sono nodali nello sviluppo di nuove tecnologie, con ricadute in altri settori produttivi. Perciò in Italia da un lato sarà supportata l’economia spaziale e dall’altro sarà incentivata l’economia del mare, nella quale possiamo pesare parecchio a livello globale.

00:00The economy of the sea and the economy of space are the sectors where new technologies can be developed,
00:14also related to other productive sectors.
00:18For this reason, we had already planned, in the economic manoeuvre of last year,
00:22two frameworks to allow our companies and our country to catalyse the attention on the development of the space economy.
00:33The design of the law has already been approved in the Council of Ministers
00:37and in the next few days the Parliamentary ITER will begin.
00:41Today we can mark an Italian success with the launch of Ariane,
00:46which will allow Europe to finally have autonomous access to space,
00:52and in conjunction with a framework law on the blue economy,
00:57which we are working on intensively together with the other competent ministries,
01:01under the coordination of the Ministry of the Sea, of our friend Nello Guzmeci,
01:05which we will present in the autumn session of the Parliamentary ITER.
01:11So that Italy can have two leading legislative instruments in Europe,
01:17one that regulates, encourages and supports the development of the space economy,
01:23where we have a leading role in the world,
01:27the other that will allow us to develop, coordinate and encourage the economy of the sea,
01:33where we can also certainly mark very significant positions on a global level.
01:40On the other hand, Europe must, on the one hand,
01:44gain autonomous access, strategic autonomy over space,
01:50and, on the other hand, return to invest in the maritime economy,
01:55since the continental expansion of Europe has abruptly stopped,
02:02because in the eastern borders of Europe, unfortunately, there is war today.
02:08And the growth of Europe, which in the last thirty years
02:11has been coordinated above all in the continental economy,
02:15rightly integrating the countries of Central and Eastern Europe
02:20and, to some extent, using the great Russian continent
02:25for the energy supply of raw materials,
02:28and as a market for the Asian and Chinese continents,
02:32along the continental guidelines,
02:34Europe in the coming years will necessarily have to grow in the Mediterranean,
02:40with the Mediterranean and through the Mediterranean,
02:43involving the south of the world.
02:45In this there is a strategic policy of the Italian government
02:48to make Italy the actual protagonist in the growth of the sea economy of our Europe.
