H.E. Daniel Azzopardi, Ambassador of Malta to Italy and San Marino, held an official visit to the Friuli-Venezia Giulia region, particularly to the city of Trieste, on 7-9 April 2026, accompanied by Mr. Alberto Panizzoli, Honorary Consul with jurisdiction over the region.

Prolonged conflict in the Middle East continues to pose serious humanitarian, political and security challenges far beyond the region, including for Europe. In uncertain times such as these, the EU must strengthen its capacity to unite and deliver.

I made these remarks earlier this afternoon when addressing a meeting of the Heads of Missions of EU member states in Malta, hosted by the High Commissioner of Cyprus in Malta @ChristofidesY as part of the Cypriot Presidency of the EU @CY2026EU.

I also commended the Cypriot Presidency for its leadership at a particularly demanding moment for the European Union, when our collective ability to demonstrate strategic direction, credibility and preparedness is more important than ever.

#ItalyMFA Secretary General, Amb. Riccardo Guariglia, and 🇲🇹 Permanent Secretary for Foreign Affairs and Tourism, @chriscutajar, had a fruitful meeting regarding #IMEC and customs cooperation, in Rome.
Malta’s strategic location - along the route linking the Middle East with the central Mediterranean and continental Europe - makes it a key hub for strengthening the trade, digital and energy connectivity that IMEC aims to promote.
Rome’s candidacy to host the future #EUCA headquarters was addressed, resting on key strengths: no additional costs for the EU budget, notable logistical infrastructure, and well-established expertise in the customs sector.

Promoting educational cooperation between nations is a key pillar of our diplomatic mission across Europe and beyond.

It was a pleasure to welcome @UnitelmaTweet @SapienzaRoma Prof. Bruno Botta to Valletta this morning, as this prestigious Italian university prepares to launch its first collaboration in Malta.

Grateful to Amb. @DAzzopardi_, @MaltainItaly, @MFTmalta and Education Malta for facilitating this initiative. I look forward to many more partnerships that can open new opportunities for our students and academics.

This evening, we marked 10 years of #TradeMalta! A successful public-private partnership between @MaltaGov and @MaltaChamber.

Over the past decade, TradeMalta has supported hundreds of Malta-based companies, helping them grow beyond our shores and establish a global presence.

As we look ahead, let’s continue working together to give this entity fresh momentum. The next decade will demand even more agility, creativity, and collaboration. @MaltaGov and @MFTmalta are fully committed to supporting all stakeholders on this journey.
