In Baltimore on🇮🇹Amerigo Vespucci @ItalianNavy to start a special🇺🇸tour that will include also NYC & Boston.
To honor and celebrate @America250 with our American friends, Italy brought in the U.S. “the most beautiful ship in the world”, as USS Independence famously said in 1962.
A warm grazie to our Consul General Nico Frandi and the entire team @ItalyinPhilly for making my visit to Philadelphia productive and enjoyable.
A true pleasure to meet so many American friends and such a dynamic and integrated Italian and Italian American community.
A valuable discussion with @PhillyMayor Cherelle Parker. Appreciate the exchange of ideas identifying opportunities to work together. Thank you for the Liberty Bell, powerful symbol of the city, of the American Revolution and of the ideals that shaped the United States.
A busy week with the launch of the Great American State Fair with @POTUS Donald J. Trump @America250. I then started my visit to Pennsylvania.
And soon I'll be in Baltimore for the arrival of our "Amerigo Vespucci" @ItalianNavy for the US tour touching also NYC and Boston.
It's always an honor to celebrate our Italian heritage in the US and here in Philadelphia, and the inspiring contribution of the Italian American community to this great Nation — in particular as we celebrate @America250.
Grazie @niaforg for all you do and the Lincoln Award.

Arnaldo Pomodoro's masterpieces are iconic — they're at the United Nations in NYC, our Foreign Ministry in Rome, the Vatican, the @hirshhorn in Washington DC.
Today, we celebrate the centannial of this beloved Italian artist, often inspired by American Abstract Expressionists.
The Amerigo Vespucci is sailing toward New York to celebrate, on July 4, the 250th anniversary of the independence of the United States of America.
The Vespucci will be there, on a voyage planned long ago, to commemorate our century-old relationship with the United States and the deep friendship that binds our two peoples.
She will be there for the 20 million Italian Americans who have helped make that nation great.
She will be there to express our gratitude and to remember the 16,757 American soldiers who rest in our cemeteries or remain missing in Italy, at a time when the contribution of the Allies was decisive for the liberation of our country.
She will also be there with thoughts of the 13,821 American service members and the 2,575 American civilians, and their families, who work alongside us in Italy every day and are welcomed as brothers in ensuring the security of the Atlantic Alliance.
She will be there to remember the sacrifice of the more than 1,000 Italian military personnel who have been killed or wounded in international missions alongside our American allies, NATO, the European Union, and the United Nations, from Afghanistan to the Balkans, as well as our civilians who have served with them.
She will be there to reaffirm our shared values, our defense of common ideals, and our determination to continue walking together.
She will be there to bring a piece of Italy to a friendly nation on the day of its birth.
She will be there with the pride of representing a nation that has honored its values, commitments, and allies—always, every day, for eighty years.
Arnaldo Pomodoro's masterpieces are iconic — they're at the United Nations in NYC, our Foreign Ministry in Rome, the Vatican, the @hirshhorn in Washington DC.

It was a pleasure to join my friend Ambassador Francisco Duarte Lopes @portugalintheus and Madeira President Miguel Albuquerque to toast @America250.
Grazie for your warm welcome and the fun event!
"The Prince" is perhaps Machiavelli's most famous work — the result of his experience in Renaissance politics and diplomacy.
But most of all, as the New York Times pointed out, he was a lover of Italy and his own Florece, the city where he died 499 years ago.
Italy's @LaneConstruct@Webuild_Group and @Confagricoltura are among the participants to the upcoming Italy-US Business, Investment, Science, and Innovation Forum.
Vi aspettiamo! We're looking forward to meeting Italian and US leaders in Miami, Florida on June 22.
Such a joy to celebrate @America250 and 250 years of American diplomacy at the @StateDept, hosted by @UnderSecPD Sarah Rogers.
Italy is celebrating with all Americans, offering a calendar of initiatives spanning culture, the Italian American experience, innovation, and more!
Who's coming to the Italy-US Business, Investment, Science and Innovation Forum in Miami?
