Euro-MPs for the anti-establishment Five-Star Movement on Thursday praised remarks by European Union economic affairs commissioner Pierre Moscovici defending Italian democracy from foreign interference.

"On 4 March, Italians voted for change. Everyone must respect this wish," the Five-Star lawmakers said in a statement

"Europe is the continent where democracy is strongest. No one - neither an anonymous bureaucrat nor a financial vulture can sever the bond between citizens and their representatives," the statement went on

"Moscovici has admitted that we are right. We note this and it gives us cheer," the statement concluded.

Moscovici said on Thursday that the "democratic process" was ongoing in Italy, a founder EU member and key eurozone economy. Any future Italian government would have the EU Commission's respect and cooperation, he said.

"It would be inadmissible to speculate and ever more so to interfere," Moscovici stated, adding: "Democracy has the last word."

Five-Star is the biggest party since Italy's inconclusive 4 March national election that saw populist parties make strong gains. Five-Star is still seeking to form an anti-austerity government with the far-right, eurosceptic League party - a prospect that has roiled markets and alarmed Europe.
