Great thing about Italy is that you can get free water in many places right on the street, from drinking fountains 24/7. amenity=drinking_water is rank 5 on Italy's taginfo stats, almost double the amount of petrol stations :) https://taginfo.geofabrik.de/europe/italy/keys/amenity#values In France, drinking_water is amenity rank 23, so rightfully your government has found other ways to provide you with water ;-) https://taginfo.geofabrik.de/europe/france/keys/amenity#values Not to get me wrong, I do agree there is benefit from political action, and there are issues related to water. What also matters is the actual price you have to pay for (bottled) water. It will always be completely unrelated to drinking water prices, but while in Italy a bottle of water is typically 1 EUR (away from airports), or 2 EUR (in the restaurant, there are exceptions), in Germany they will typically charge you 2,50 and more for just a glass of water. In Switzerland, they sell water for 5 SFR a bottle on the motorway, and 4 EUR and more is not unseen on German motorways as well. Cheers Martin
