Italian PM Renzi says aims to get jobless rate under 10 percent

LONDON (Reuters) - Italy can get its unemployment below 10 percent in the medium term with signs of improvement beginning to show through in the economy, Prime Minister Matteo Renzi said on Tuesday, after the jobless rate hit its highest level since at least 1977.

"We want to get under 10 percent in the coming months, the coming years," he told a joint news conference in London with British Prime Minister David Cameron.
