The Italian Initiative Group had the pleasure of hosting a working breakfast attended by Luigi Di Maio, Special Representative of the European Union for the Gulf.<\/p>\n

The meeting provided an important opportunity for discussion on a region that is becoming increasingly central to global geopolitical dynamics.
