Doha, Qatar: Ambassador of Italy to the State of Qatar H E Paolo Toschi was invited by Qatar Leadership Centre as a guest speaker to the QLC Government Leaders Program participants, which have been engaged in an official study visit to Italy last September.

On that occasion, the programme participants  had the opportunity to visit prestigious institutions such as the Chamber of Deputies of the Italian Parliament, the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation, and the City of Rome, as well as educational institutions among which the High Studies Center of the Italian Defence. Moreover, they visited many leading Italian companies and banks.

The speech by Ambassador Toschi came at a very special moment of bilateral relations, building up on the recent State Visit by  the Amir H H Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani to Rome from October 20-22, where he had meetings with both the President of the Italian Republic H E Sergio Mattarella and Prime Minister H E Giorgia Meloni.

The visit served as a top-level opportunity to strengthen institutional and political dialogue between the two countries, as well as to enhance cooperation in the field of security, trade, investments, energy, development, culture and tourism.

In Ambassador Toschi’s words, “the class of Qatar Leadership Centre had the opportunity to witness firsthand the ever growing relationship between our two countries”.
