The new Italian government held a video call with European Union Commissioner Margrethe Vestager over Rome’s plan to nationalise Alitalia, the three ministers, who were involved in the call, said. They said they had agreed with Brussels that it was necessary to ensure economic discontinuity between the old airline and a proposed new carrier.
