13:14 18 SET 2012 

(AGI) - Rome, 18 Sep - At close of meetings with Czech counterpart Vaclav Klaus, Giorgio Napolitano discussed EU banking. On the broader topic of the EU and the common currency, the Italian president said "I believe that banking sector integration should rank among future step forwards towards [EU] integration." Napolitano went on to add "with a common currency in place, the way forward has to be to establish common platforms in several other areas; failing that, there can be no such thing as a common monetary policy." .
