We are delighted to welcome Dr. Ciro Maddaloni as the new Head of the DC Mission Italy to the Diplomatic Council family.

He has organised two remarkable book launches in Rome — one at the national parliament and the other at Italy’s foremost military officers’ club.

As aformer EU Senior Advisor who moved regularly between Brussels and Strasbourg, Dr. Ciro Maddaloni brings with him a wealth of experience and a strong pan-European network. It is a pleasure and honour to welcome you, Ciro, as our new DC Head of Mission Italy.
