The Mediterranean is a hub for dangerous and illegal trafficking and movements. Drugs (including captagon), illegal immigrants, Islamic extremists and terrorists are arriving in Europe in large numbers from the Middle East and North Africa. What is the level of the threat and how can it be addressed?

This conference, organized by the Machiavelli Center for Political and Strategic Studies, will attempt to answer these questions. The conference will feature politicians and experts, including American analyst Nicole Robinson from the Heritage Foundation.

The event will take place on Tuesday, November 7, 2023, from 6pm to 7:30pm, at the Salvadori Hall of the Palace of the Parliamentary Groups, Chamber of Deputies, at Via Uffici del Vicario 21.

Registration is mandatory (click here to fill out the form or send us an email) by 24:00 on the day before the conference.
